Finding Song in the Uluru Statement

Riverside Theatre presents a groundbreaking collaboration between the Song Company and Indigenous composers and singers Elizabeth Sheppard (Yamatji/Gandangarra) and Sonya Hollowell (Dharawal) titled Songs From the Heart. It features an acapella performance directly inspired by the Uluru Statement of the Heart.

2SER host Felix Shannon sits down with Elizabeth Sheppard and Sonya Hollowell to break-down how to turn a multi-faceted piece like the Uluru Statement of the Heart into song. Listeners get an insight into the ‘rockapella’ style, and the timeliness of the performance in the Albenese era.

The performance takes place on the 2nd of October 2022.
