Kookaburra
Publisher Desc.
This work was commissioned by the Cooloola Shire Symphony Orchestra in Queensland Australia in collaboration with some elders from the Nations in that area. It is written for full orchestra, narrator and didgeridoo. It tells of the legend of how the Kookaburra got its laugh. It is also an effective introduction to the instruments of the orchestra for younger listeners. The didgeridoo is featured but blends in well with the orchestra and storyline. Audiences of all ages will be engaged by the legend and the variety of tonal colours.
