Didgeridoo virtuoso and composer William Barton was born in Mount Isa, Queensland. William was taught to play the didgeridoo by his uncle, an elder of the Waanyi, Lardil and Kalkadunga people of north western Queensland. As an advocate for the wider awareness of his cultural traditions, he appears at major music festivals and concert halls nationally and internationally. Fusing indigenous music with Europe's musical legacy, William bridges two diverse cultures to foster better understanding and respect for each other’s traditions and customs.
