Life on Land's Edge | A cinematic concert celebrating migratory birds
SEE EVENT DETAILS
From the creators of Where Song Began (***** Limelight Magazine) & Songs of Disappearance (#2 on the ARIA Album Charts), this performance will take you on an epic journey alongside migratory birds as they connect continents and cultures. A cinematic concert experience, Life on Land's Edge draws on art, science, and music from across the ages. Spectacular footage and soundscapes set the scene for two of Australia's most adventurous musicians. Be immersed in one of nature's greatest stories.
About the performers: Simone Slattery (violin/vocals, PhD, Churchill Fellow) and Anthony Albrecht (cello, The Juilliard School) are internationally renowned musicians, specializing on both period and modern instruments, and founded the Bowerbird Collective in 2017 to bring their audiences closer to nature through the arts.
