Echoes of the long paddock: A folksong celebration

This special concert performance salutes the National Library of Australia’s 70th anniversary as custodian of Australia’s folksong heritage and oral history.
They offer a unique digitised treasure-trove of songs, music and stories collected by folklorists from everyday Australians. These recordings are signposts to the understanding and appreciation of our ever-changing national identity.
Legendary singers Martyn Wyndham-Read and Warren Fahey AM, accompanied by musicians Marcus Holden and Garry Steel, will join distinguished historian Bill Gammage AM to celebrate some of the highlights of the collection.
