Video shows a group of Wollongong community musicians working with Linsey and Tunji on HONKSKI ORO early December 2016 (apologies - audio quality is poor. ). This is the first attempt at reading through the tune. Performance tempo will be a little more brisk.
This project was funded by a Large Cultural Grant from Wollongong City Council
