Ngapa William Cooper
Presented by Adelaide Festival
World Premiere
Sunday 5 March 2.30pm
Composed and written by Nigel Westlake, Lior and Lou Bennett with additional creative lyric content by Sarah Gory
It’s been almost a decade since composer Nigel Westlake and singer-songwriter Lior shared their classic song cycle, Compassion, with the world. The pair unite again for the world premiere of Ngapa William Cooper (Grandfather William Cooper), a moving companion piece in which they are joined by an equally unaffected, yet deeply affecting voice: that of Yorta Yorta Dja Dja Wurrung singer, composer and language activist Dr Lou Bennett AM.
