CANCELLED - The Evolution of Aṉangu Music
Rooted in the rich traditions of the APY Lands, this performance celebrates the spirit of Aṉangu culture. Blending tradition with contemporary expression, audiences will be immersed in a diverse array of performance styles, from the ancient and deeply spiritual rhythms of Inma (cultural song and dance), to the harmonious strength of choir, and the contemporary voices of rap, reggae, and R’n’B.
Each element speaks to the ongoing evolution of Aṉangu expression — blending tradition with the modern, and honouring connection to Country, community, and culture. More than a performance, this is a statement: of resilience, of creativity, and of the unbroken, ever-adapting story of the Anangu people.

Iwiṟi’s mission is to enhance the wellbeing of Aṉangu living in Adelaide away from their traditional homelands. Iwiṟi works towards achieving better outcomes for Aṉangu individuals and families who often face considerable disadvantage. We achieve this through programs that nurture connections to key aspects of Aṉangu identity: Ngura (country/home), Tjukurpa (philosophy/Lore), Walytja (kinship), and Kurunpa (spirit). Members engage in cultural practices, speak language, share stories, and maintain strong kinship ties through various programs offered. These initiatives promote pride in identity, cultural continuity, and a sense of belonging—key protective factors in improving social and emotional wellbeing.Suitability & warnings
