Many composers have set this heart-wrenching

than it was in 500 BCE. The Australian Chamber
Choir has commissioned Australian composers,
Tom Henry to write a new work on this theme.
Uncertain Journeys sets texts written by people
seeking asylum in Australia. Program includes JS
Bach Motets and works by Palestrina, Handl, Byrd,
Gibbons, Dering, Martin, new works by Australian
composers, Luke Hutton and Tom Henry.
