To hear your piece being played by not only one musician, but by a whole orchestra, is very powerful and very humbling. William Barton
Queensland Symphony Orchestra recently performed the world premiere of William Bartons Apii Thatini Mu Murtu (To sing and carry a coolamon on country together) under the baton of Benjamin Northey. In celebration of NAIDOC Week, enjoy this introspective video featuring an excerpt of the piece alongside some of Williams musings of his time with us.
The world premiere of Apii Thatini Mu Murtu (To sing and carry a coolamon on country together) was commissioned for Queensland Symphony Orchestra by The Honourable Anthe Philippides.
