Welcome to the AusFolkus series of podcasts: Exploring the people and stories behind Australian folk music and dance In these podcasts I’ll be interviewing many of the musicians, dancers, choristers and teachers from the multitude of folk genres that we are so lucky to be exposed to in this country. These are people who have been in front of you in festivals, concerts and dance demonstrations in some cases for decades. Their names will be well known to you and have in many instances been celebrated by you while watching them or perhaps even participating with them while they ply their wondrous art. Theme music: Veligdensko Horo sourced from Linsey Pollak's book "Macedonian Folk Music" ( linseypollak.com )

This is a full concert about Gallipoli in 1915 and the battle between the Anzacs and the Turkish troops specifically. It contains a narrative as well as a selection of songs in both English (to reflect the Anzac experience) and Turkish. The English songs were all written by Eric Bogle who very kindly gave me his permission to use his songs on this very special concert. There is a very special guest on this podcast too who is well known both nationally and internationally and well loved. He is sadly missed. My island home of Malta also features in this episode. Please make a donation to the Blue Mountains Refugee Support Group if you can.
