New Music From The South West of Western Australia
About
Robert Zielinski (Western Australia) and Manuela Centanni (Italy) met in New Zealand five years ago. They have since performed many concerts, including at the State Theatre Centre of Western Australia. The premiere of Robert’s one-hour original composition “Kiangardarup” in May 2024 received a standing ovation. They recently released the album “Kiangardarup” to critical acclaim.Together they play many of Robert's original compositions inspired by the majestic Great Southern region of Western Australia, beside traditional pieces from Ireland, Scotland and the Shetland Islands. They are known for their tone, harmonies and unison playing.
“The music is richly melodic and gorgeous to listen to”
Lee Buddle, senior producer and engineer at Crank Recording, Perth
“Robert Zielinski has given us a masterpiece that is as much a tribute to his West Australian home as it is to the enduring spirit of Irish traditional music”
Stevie Connor, The Sound Cafe, Ontario, Canada.
