Elegy At Dig Tree & Goin' Overland By Stephen Chin

The two musical compositions in question are a tribute to the intrepid spirit of the early Australian explorers. Dig Tree is the tragic site where the legendary explorers Burke and Wills met their unfortunate fate due to a series of unfortunate events. The Elegy is a poignant and moving piece of music that perfectly captures the sense of isolation and despair that these brave men must have experienced in the harsh and unforgiving wilderness. In stark contrast to this, Goin' Overland is an upbeat and exhilarating piece of music that perfectly captures the excitement and anticipation of exploring the vast and untamed Australian outback. The composition is characterized by a range of captivating string techniques, such as tremolo, harmonics, pizzicato, and legato, which artfully evoke the unique sounds and rhythms of the Australian landscape.
