Chris Cree Brown presents the premiere performance of this radiophonic work. Although solely a sonic work, he has chosen to premiere it in the cinema because:
1) it has a wonderful sound system
2) there are comfortable seats
3) the acoustics suit spoken words better than a larger space.
Pilgrimage to Gallipoli is an extensive radiophonic work of 85 mins in two parts. It is the result of more than 14 years of research, audio recordings, and compilation. The work includes recordings Chris made during visits to ANZAC day commemorations at ANZAC cove in 1994 and 2001, along with interviews, site-specific recordings and historic sonic material. His sabbatical leave in 2008 allowed him sufficient space and time essential to compiling this creative response to one of this country's defining events.
