Kaurna Yarta is a spectacular new performance inspired by connection to country and the cycle of the seasons. This 80-minute cinematic concert features stunning visuals, immersive soundscapes, song, dance and ceremony, as well as new music for string quintet and traditional instruments. This is an unmissable, sacred celebration of culture in harmony with nature.

Kaurna Yarta - The Seasons features 24 new works by Australian composer David John Lang, commissioned by the Bowerbird Collective, and directly inspired by two years of knowledge sharing with Kaurna elders and culture bearers, including Aunty Lynette Crocker, Jamie Goldsmith and Taikurtinna Dance.

The work received its World Premiere on October 14, 2023, at the Living Kaurna Cultural Centre, SA, supported by Creative Australia and Arts South Australia.

The Regional SA tour is supported by Create SA and Country Arts SA.

The Yorke Peninsula is the traditional lands of the Narungga (Nharangga) people, who have lived on, and cared for, this country since the beginning of time. We work, live and travel on Nharannga Banggara [Country], and we take time away from those pursuits to acknowledge and pay our deep respects to the Nharangga Elders of the past and present. 

Today, it is essential that we continue to care for and protect our spectacular natural environment. Tread lightly and leave no trace. Learn more about responsible and respectful travel on Yorke Peninsula.
