The official opening show of GTF this year is Svara Bhumi (Songs of the Earth), a tribute to our land and its indigenous music. One of Australia’s leading aboriginal bands, the Black Arm Band, will be performing along with New Zealand artist Ria Hall and members of Malaysian tribe Mah Meri. They will be joined by local musician Alena Murang and Indonesian singer/ songwriter Ayu Laksmi.
The Black Arm Band is led by a strategic team of Australia’s foremost indigenous artists. Their musical tradition and presentation has been forged from over 40,000 years of living with culture, and now, infused with contemporary styles that have been adopted by Australian aboriginals. The Mah Meri is an ethnic group native to western part of Malaysia and one of 18 Orang Asli groups named by the Malaysian government. At the concert, Alena Murang will play the sape, a traditional lute instrument made from wood. The multi-talented Ayu Laksmi is well-known for singing in five languages, Sanskrit, Balinese and English.
