As a new composer in the earliest development stages of my craft, I worried how my work would stand alongside the pieces of experienced, accomplished composers who had already contributed to this series. As an Aboriginal musician with limited music theory, I also worried if I could create something of a standard suitable for the ensemble and its project partners. in times like this I look to culture to provide guidance. I quickly realised Yuwaalaraay knowledge, connection and relationship to birds equalled the complexity and detail of advanced musical theory, compositional practice and creative conception. So I worked hard to imbue this piece with the things I know well, cultural concepts and knowledge, enabling a transformation away from a commissioned composition and into an extension of my own lived and practiced cultural experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOf Stars and Birds\u003c\/em\u003e developed then from a significant Yuwaalaraay story ending in the creation of the southern cross but traversing the enormity of land, lore, death and rebirth. Birds weave this story into our dreaming cosmos, the conventional limitations of earth, sky, death, day, life and night dissolving and creating its own universe of existence - a bit like my compositional craft, a mixture of traditions and teachings, an extension of the storytelling and song making of Australia's First Peoples and the explorations and expressions of a new composer at the beginning of an exciting musical journey. - Nardi Simpson\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Australian Music Centre","offers":[{"title":"Full Score","offer_id":45942977265743,"sku":"M46918","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of Parts","offer_id":45943051059279,"sku":"M47052","price":44.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/bfdc7a1cc3074c0412e5165e1f1cc882_124a83c1-86e8-4eab-9241-9b862d823c3c.jpg?v=1784977905"},{"product_id":"n-simpson-burruguu-australian","title":"N.

I am playing with this concept as not only a musical reference to the beginnings of Aboriginal time (the Lore, the dreaming or everywhen), but also an embodiment of the immediate point of musical creation, allowing space for the ensemble to create within the piece. Ngarra-Burria brings the final piece to this puzzle; its continued growth and development, a promise to the future.
