Vanuatu Women’s Water Music – Official Trailer

For the feature length film and DVD, ‘Vanuatu Women’s Water Music’.
Featuring The Leweton Village Cultural Group.
Produced by Further Arts, Wantok Musik, Thomas Dick and Sandy Sur.
Directed By Tim Cole.

The performers of the Vanuatu Women’s Water Music group hail from the remote northern tropical islands of Vanuatu. They travel the world performing the Na Mag and Ne Lang dances as a prelude to the mystical water music, dressed in their traditional costumes of Gaua and Mere Lava made from flowers and leaves, coconuts and pandanus. Their performance is truly mesmerizing as they reimagine the old with contemporary expressions of Matto – bringing together traditional beats and rhythms with melodies and soaring vocal harmonies.

The Water Music of Vanuatu is a performance that needs to be seen (and heard) to be believed.

DVD available now through Wantok Musik and Further Arts.
