Kaisahan Voice Ensemble
Under the guidance of artistic director and conductor, Chris Trinidad, the Kaisahan Voice Ensemble is a 
Canadian choir dedicated to performing and promoting choral music written by Filipino composers and 
arrangers.  Kaisahan means "unity" in Tagalog, one of the dialects of the Philippines, and for the voice 
ensemble, it symbolizes using the unity of culture and music to expand the awareness of Filipino culture 
and history.  

Brave Waves was formed in January, 2001 to create a multicultural mixture of musical styles. 
Since then they have recorded two cds of their "singer/songwriter world music", and are working on a third. 
Nealamjit Singh Dhillon (tabla, saxophone, flute) has performed in diverse milieus such as playing tabla 
with the rock band "The Tea Party" and with the jazz/funk band "The Millenium Project" at the Vancouver 
and Montreal Jazz Festivals. He has his B.A. in Jazz Performance from Capilano College. Joseph McDonald 
(bagpipes, keyboards, harmonica, vocals) has been a professional musician in Vancouver for 20 years, 
playing bagpipes & keyboards with "Bare Facts" & "The Mad Celts".  Chris Trinidad (bass, drums, vocals) 
is a Richmond, British Columbia based producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Chris' ability to 
play electric bass, the drumset and sing in tandem with his open mindset has allowed him to experience 
many diverse musical situations.
