Event Details

“A wonderful and unprecedented marriage of surfing to a Tchaikovsky waltz.”—Sydney Morning Herald

Immerse yourself in an unforgettable visual and sonic experience of breathtaking imagery from Australia’s Ningaloo Reef and a fascinating score of music ranging from Bach to Pete Seeger, performed live by the Australian Chamber Orchestra.

A crew of surfers, musicians and filmmakers spent two weeks at the Ningaloo Reef, where the desert meets the sea. Their resulting film captures the ocean, the world's best surfers, the arid desert landscape and the starry sky, as an incredible array of music swirls around you. It is an illuminating and thrilling celebration of surfing, the ocean, landscape, film and music melded together.

Australian Chamber Orchestra
Richard Tognetti, artistic director & lead violin
Mick Sowry, director & producer
Jon Frank, director of photography
Derek Hynd, director of surfing
Iain Grandage, composer
Satu Vänskä, violin & vocals
Brian Ritchie, guitars
