Work Overview

The words for "Communion" were inspired by morning walks through the tropical rainforest near our home in the wet tropics of Far North Queensland. They attempt to describe the various forms of plant life equating them with human characteristics. The flute and didgeridoo portray unseen spiritual elements.
