Electrifying marriage of the very old with the very new, Crossing Roper Bar 2013 is a celebration of country, of ceremony, and of the power of music to build enduring bridges across cultures, time and space.

Crossing Roper Bar is a visionary exploration of the music traditions of Australia's first people by the Australian Art Orchestra in collaboration
with the Wägilak Songmen from Ngukurr, south east Arnhem Land. The collaboration extends in 2013 to include legendary Broome-based musician Stephen Pigram.
