Buy TicketsTo Listen To Sing features composers from the Ngarra-Burria: First Peoples Composers program. Ngarra-Burria has built bridges for Indigenous musicians to step sideways into instrumental chamber composition over the past 9 years, altering the Australian landscape of art music composers and importantly giving a new voice to First Nations composers. This program features prominent First Nations composers including Brenda Gifford (Yuin), Nardi Simpson (Yuwaalaraay), Eric Avery (Ngiyampaa, Yuin, Bundjalung and Gumbaynggir) and James Henry (Kamilaroi-Yuwaalaraay, Yorta-Yorta and Yuin).
Ensemble Offspring is Australia’s leading new music group, standing at the forefront of musical innovation for 30 years. Together, they champion living and marginalised voices including First Nations and female artists, creating “visceral, joyous music” (Sydney Morning Herald) through kaleidoscopically varied performances that blaze a trail for Australian music.
