Course description

This course provides students with the opportunity to learn about Indigenous Australian peoples and their music making; examine the diverse forms of Indigenous performance; and explore how Indigenous Australian performers simultaneously resist and use colonialist constructions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander performance to create new and exciting forms.
