Come with us on an incredible musical journey, as master musician William Barton transports the audience to a sonic world, transcending time and space.

Joined by song woman and wordsmith Aunty Dalmae Barton, composer and violin virtuoso, Véronique Serret, Australian music legend Iva Davies and surrounded by the symphonic landscape of John Foreman’s magnificent 45-piece Australian Pops Orchestra, William’s powerfully moving music will take you to the deep past, the future, to the majestic Australian landscape and the almost unimaginable wonders of the cosmos.

William Barton is one of Australia’s most celebrated musicians. Composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist and one of Australia’s leading didgeridoo players, William is a Kalkadunga man whose music is inspiring, uplifting, and powerful.
