About the event
Mungangga Garlagula
Sitting around the fire at night (Yamatji)
A deeply human story of homecoming
Mungangga Garlagula is a collaboration in music, sound and story by legendary Indigenous performer Mark Atkins and renowned Australian/Finnish composer and performer Erkki Veltheim.
Audiences are invited to join Mark by the campfire, and to travel with him as he takes us across the border between day and night, dream and reality, the reverberating past and the emerging future.
Together with a company of exceptional Australian musicians who have created a shifting bed of sound for the work, Mark and Erkki lead us into a nocturnal world of memories, echoes, spirits and dreams. Conjuring Country through words and breath, the snapping of branches and the play of shadows between the listener by the fire and the impenetrable darkness beyond.
Intimate and epic, playful and piercing, Mungangga Garlagula is an evening of rich storytelling and virtuosic didjeridu that restores the experience of listening with the whole body. It draws us together with new attention on a deeply human journey of disorientation, reorientation and homecoming.
