Central Australian Aboriginal Women's Choir
Hailing from the very heart of Australia, the 35-strong Central Australian Aboriginal Women’s Choir is drawn together from seven remote communities of Australia’s vast central desert.
Singing in English alongside Western Arrarnta and Pitjantjatjara – two living languages of the Northern Territory and South Australia – and led by Choir Master Morris Stuart, this extraordinary vocal ensemble first came to popular attention following ABC TV’s Australian Story, and the feature documentary, The Song Keepers.
Be transported in a musical confluence of Baroque and Romantic era choral arrangements and centuries-old sacred hymns, carried through time in ancient Aboriginal languages. This once in a lifetime choral experience is an extraordinary meeting of cultures and an unforgettable evening of song and history.
“Nowhere is this echoing of past voices into the present more evident than in the work of the Central Australian Aboriginal Women’s Choir” Metro Magazine
A wonderful performance. Very moving.
