The Orchid and the Wasp // Wattleseed @ Nexus

Join Wattleseed Ensemble for their first tour of South Australia. 

Wattleseed Ensemble's music is an invitation to intimacy; to the rawness of strings and eucalypt forest; to connection. We weave together music of the baroque period together with folk music and contemporary Australian music in a confluence of styles, finding cohesion in the telling of a story. These stories always take us back to our scrappy, beautiful, astonishing Aussie environment.
