Barragga Yangga, meaning "Many Songs" in traditional Dhurga language, is an innovative workshop curated by Four Winds First Nations Creative Director Cheryl Davison. Hosted and co-produced by Four Winds Concerts on Djiringanj Country, this immersive residency brings together Djinama Yilaga and special invited guests to collaborate, share, and develop new work in an environment of cultural exchange, supported by conductor and mentor Roland Peelman and musician Heath Cullen.
The Barragga Yangga Many Songs Residency is a unique gathering of artists, culture bearers, and community members at Four Winds. Through a series of creative workshops, participants engage in storytelling, song learning, and orchestration, centred on the revival and celebration of Dhurga language and Yuin culture.
Led by Four Winds First Nations Creative Director Cheryl Davison, the residency features collaborative sessions with Djinama Yilaga Choir and special guests – including Affinity Quartet, Butchulla songman Fred Leone, and Yuin rap artist Gabadu – with arrangements shaped by Roland Peelman and Heath Cullen.
Participants and invited guests will have the opportunity to learn from Elders, artists, and each other in a shared creative environment. Together, we honour the spirit of many songs, preserving and amplifying Dhurga language and stories for generations to come – all within the stunning natural setting of Four Winds.
