William Barton shares the beauty and majesty of the world’s oldest living culture in Apii Thatini Mu Murtu (To sing and carry a coolamon on country together). This celebration of Kalkadoon country will resound through the Perth Concert Hall as William’s extraordinary voice and didgeridoo are magically woven together with the orchestra, creating a moving musical unity.
Quiet and reflective, Fauré’s Requiem is one of the most beloved of all choral works. Avoiding the fire and brimstone dramatics of a traditional Requiem Mass, Fauré instead offers music of peacefulness and serenity.
First Nations Creative Collaborations are supported by Bendat Family Foundation.
