"an invitation to connect with our country’s spiritual
ancestry in a way we are rarely afforded."
the age
tura new music is proud and privileged to join with the australian art orchestra, the wagilak gujarra/nyilapidgi musicians from ngukurr and ruby hunter in presenting this journey of a lifetime. from a conversation in brisbane with paul grabowsky two years ago, the seed of an idea has grown and hundreds of people and organisations have worked passionately to bring this to reality.

the australian art orchestra has been extremely privileged to be able to collaborate with musicians from ngukurr over the past four years to create a truly cross cultural experience. for tura new music and their partner total to have realised the unique opportunity of this tour to regional and remote northern australia extends this privilege further and allows for so many to witness, and be part of this incredible journey. this indeed recognises the vital significance of maintaining and protecting the world’s oldest musical performative tradition.
