    Music for The Dreaming: Dhawara

    We find out how Grandmother Moon, Dhawara, plays an important part in the cycle of life on Mother Earth. While Grandmother Moon shines full and bright in the sky above Wreck Bay, kids are invited to imagine the sounds of the moonbeams sparkling on the water while the vibraphone plays a beautiful melody.

    Music for The Dreaming: Gambambarawaraga

    Through Aunty Brenda’s music ‘Footprints’ and teachings from Yuin Elder Noel Butler kids will learn the concept of ‘treading lightly’ on Mother Earth. We imagine footprints in the sand in Wreck Bay as we hear the bass clarinet and bongos create a rhythm that sounds like footsteps, and children can sing-along to Aunty Brenda’s song.
