‘On the Wings of a Godwit’ is a 20-minute, immersive, online guided meditation of music, birdsong and spoken word that takes the listener on a journey from the continental shores of Australasia to the tundra of Siberia. We invite you, the listener, to become a migratory bird, overwintering between your summer homes, following a flyway path that has been travelled for thousands of years. 

Stop, listen, breathe, and take flight on this journey created by renowned Australian artist Kate Gorringe-Smith, creator of the Overwintering Project, and award-winning musicians and soundscape designers the Bowerbird Collective, Simone Slattery (violin) and Anthony Albrecht (cello). Further information available at www.bowerbird.productions/godwit
