Overview"Yuupurnju: A Warlpiri song cycle documents a ceremonial song cycle situated within the traditional kurdiji ""shield"" ceremony, as sung by Warlpiri Elder Henry Cooke Anderson Jakamarra at Lajamanu, Northern Territory, in 2013. The song cycle relates to a women's jukurrpa Dreaming narrative, and tells the story of a group of ancestral women on a journey across the country. Jakamarra performed the songs (recorded by Carmel O'Shannessy) to make them available to the Warlpiri community and the wider public. Yuupurnju: A Warlpiri song cycle includes the words of the songs in Warlpiri, interpretation in English as given by the singer, Jakamarra, and Warlpiri Elders Jerry Patrick Jangala OAM, Wanta Stephen Patrick Pawu-Kurlpurlurnu Jampijinpa and Steven Dixon Japanangka, and detailed musical notation by ethnomusicologist Myfany Turpin. It includes a foreword by two senior custodians, Jerry Patrick Jangala OAM, and Wanta Jampijinpa" Full Product DetailsAuthor: Carmel O'Shannessy , Wanta Steven Patrick Pawu-Kurlpurlurnu Jampijinpa , Henry Cooke Jakamarra , Steven Dixon JapanangkaPublisher: Sydney University Press Imprint: Sydney University Press ISBN: 9781743329481ISBN 10: 1743329482 Pages: 126 Publication Date: 31 May 2024 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Forthcoming Availability: Not yet available  This item is yet to be released.
