PRESENTED BY MELBOURNE INTERNATIONAL JAZZ FESTIVAL
In a very special Melbourne International Jazz Festival collaboration, formidable Blue Note pianist, Nduduzo Makhathini (South Africa), will be joined by distinguished ARIA winner, and Kalkadungu man, William Barton at The Substation.
As skilled improvisers and composers, both artists are renowned for masterfully weaving a thread between Western classical and jazz traditions, and the rich soundscapes of their cultural and spiritual musical heritage. Barton's peerless profile as a composer, vocalist and didgeridoo player has awarded him the title of the world’s pre-eminent didgeridoo musician. In a truly unique genre-defying pairing, Barton and Makhathini will combine forces to unveil a rapturous musical encounter that promises to cross borders, expand horizons and create new musical languages that speak to culture, country and beyond.
Featuring a specially commissioned composition by Barton and reimaginings of their respective original works, together these acclaimed artists will craft an unmissable live experience, putting their prodigious musical talent on full display for MIJF audiences.
