browndog's definitive Woodford 0607 DVD is currently being released just in time for Chrissie. |
Woodford lies in the hinterland of the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia.
For 14 years now and 7 before that at Maleny, a valley is transformed for six days and nights of celebration, 400 events, 22 stages, 3000 performers, 130,000 patrons from December 26. There is nothing like it on earth and the earth is everywhere as its sun rises, as its moon flies across the night sky, the crows crying in its distant triangular peaks.
In the valley’s village, traders ply their wares, travellers meet exchange tales and fellowship, clowns wander, acrobats soar, leap and turn, tall things of wood clank by, wild clothes, painted faces appear then vanish. All about, kaleidoscopes of movement, laughter, smoke, light and fire.
And everywhere there is music. Flamenco, tabla, zither, string, harp, drum, piano, and voice, if it makes sound it’s bound to be here. There are stars, discoveries, big names and things never to be repeated.
If you have never, ever been you should come. If you have and want to remember, if you haven’t and want to see, the magic that is Woodford, grab this 07 WOODFORD FESTIVAL DVD.
“In all my years of running this festival I have never seen anything like this. ‘browndog’ has broken through a barrier here, not just in terms of capturing music on film but capturing the soul of our festival.” Bill Hauritz, Festival Director.
Discover/ revive the essence of one of the world’s great festivals on this extraordinary DVD.
