A remarkable international collaboration of interconnected artforms, Woven Song is the latest piece by Short Black Opera, presented in partnership with Sydney Symphony Orchestra and featuring new compositions by Yorta Yorta soprano Deborah Cheetham AO.

A contemporary chamber series inspired by the Australian Tapestry Workshop Embassy Tapestries, the project celebrates works of art from ancient cultures, reinterpreted and recreated by the exceptional weavers at the Australian Tapestry Workshop, inspiring a contemporary response in classical music practice.

Cheetham gives voice to the material works, engaging in the telling of First Nations stories through a unique collaboration across cultures and art forms. She performs with musicians local to each country, building international creative communities through music. 

Enjoy an evening of beautiful chamber music born from a unique concept, led by the acclaimed voice of Cheetham with the support of musicians of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.
