Eleanor Jawurlngali, Duo Ruut and Ana Carla Maza at WOMADelaide

Alice Keath presents The Music Show for International Women’s Day, with some of the great international and local women on the WOMADelaide line-up.

Latin American pop and classical sensibilities meet in the music of Cuban cellist and singer Ana Carla Maza. She joins Alice to explain why producing her own record was an act of power in the male-dominated Latin music industry.

Mudburra and Garrawa woman Eleanor Jawurlngali is based in Marlinja, in the remote Northern Territory. Her debut, self-titled album has an incredible, totally unexpected sound that comes out of a new collaboration with Mick Turner from Dirty Three and award-winning cellist Stephanie Arnold.

Duo Ruut are two distinct voices, and four hands on one instrument. They are Ann-Lisett Rebane and Katariina Kivi, two Estonian women who play one kannel (Estonian zither) together.

Plus music from Inuk singer Elisapie and the Central Australian Aboriginal Women’s Choir.
