Wowak (Breathe)

Wowak is the enchanting musical result of a collaboration between four Noongar family groups and the Perth Symphony Orchestra. Noongar dance, song and story, both traditional and contemporary, have been woven together with classical instruments and composition to create a fresh, original evening of song. Experience Noongar culture that has resounded throughout Western Australia for thousands of years, and wowak, breathe, and experience a new way of the old. Wowak is composed by Rebecca Erin-Smith and draws on music from the Wadumbah, Middar, Kwarbah Djookian and Koolangka Kreate cultural groups.
