Moorambilla Voices from Scarcity to Abundance | Michelle Leonard | TEDxSydney

In this short talk, founder and conductor of Moorambilla Voices Michelle Leonard OAM explains with passion, humour and relentless positivity, why music must be more than a passive activity. With a shift in mindset from "scarcity to abundance", Leonard teaches the audience basic music literacy to show how it is possible. At the end of her talk, she introduces 60 young singers from Moorambilla Voices to the stage, for a breathtaking performance of “Guya” by composer, Josephine Gibson accompanied with images by Noni Carroll, sung in Wailwan and English. These children aged 8 to 11 travelled 10 hours by bus to perform at TEDxSydney 2018. Singing about arguably the oldest manmade structure on earth, the Brewarrina fish traps. It's a reminder to us all to live in harmony with each other and nature – to not take more than we need – to dance, to sing, to dream and to live a life of abundance.
