“ The ultimate tribute to the late David Bowie .” ~ NOISE 11
“ We don ’ t have to say goodbye to him or his songs — not till this thing we call music evaporates or the world winks out .”
~ THE BRAG
Featuring iOTA , TIM ROGERS , STEVE KILBEY , DEBORAH CONWAY & ADALITA
If David Bowie had not existed , it would have been impossible to invent him . Now that he ’ s undergone his final transformation , Australia ’ s finest pay tribute to the Starman .
Few musicians can claim to have refashioned modern music so comprehensively as the man born David Jones . From the glam of Ziggy Stardust to the desolate Berlin years right up until his intensely personal final album Blackstar , Bowie always reflected contemporary culture back on itself while remaining truly alien .
Now artists under the influence of the great man gather to perform his music in their own unique styles , alongside the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra under conductor Vanessa Scammell and Creative Director Amanda Pelman .
