Connect with BEMAC:
To start off BEMAC's 2023 program, iconic singer/songwriter, guitarist, didgeridoo player Joe Geia takes us through his 40-year career writing and performing songs that tell of Indigenous activism, resistance and transformation.
Interweaving music, narration and visuals, Tenzin Choegyal continues his exploration of the five elements. This national premiere draws on the strong allegory of the ocean to express a deeper sense of peace, strength and emotional connection, with Cye Wood, Takako Nishibori and a Taiko ensemble led by Kaya Tominaga.
For NUDO’s second full-length production, Artistic Director Yasim Coronado Veranes and the ensemble weave a patchwork of journeys that probe the inherent injustice, relentless bureaucracy and heartbreaking separation, and celebrate the milestones of love and joy threaded throughout the migrant experience.
A sublime encounter of two award-winning ensembles; Matt Hsu’s Obscure Orchestra, who make otherworldly music that celebrates difference and the liminal spaces between cultures, and Zy The Way, who are ushering in a fresh musical movement from the heart of Asia.
