  • The Last Post (Winds of Change) is a new arrangement of the special ceremonial piece, which holds great significance to everyone who has fought for this country, their families, and for Australian citizens.
    Developed over two years by First Nations arts company Garrijimanha, the new work is performed by Mark Atkins on didgeridoo and James Morrison on bugle with production by Ricky Bloomfield. ‘The Last Post (Winds of Change)’ represents the unity that existed between First Nation and Australian Diggers on the battlefield, and is a healing acknowledgment to inspire a spirit of unity within communities.
    The accompanying film, recorded at dawn on the sails of the Sydney Opera House, highlights the important role art plays in reflecting and celebrating history and creating new traditions and symbols which enable us to understand our past better.

    I can't thank both of you brilliant musicians, Chelsy Atkins and the crew who put together the audio and now this stunning video of this moving work of musical art. Thanks to Sydney Opera House for enabling this to happen. This moved me to tears and I have shared it on my FB page. I hope many people watch and appreciate this. Such a wonderful tribute to the fallen, but also a powerful reminder of how wars of any sort take lives through more than death. Deserves to be watched frequently, not just at 11 am this Remembrance Day morning, 11.11.2023.

    As a former serviceman of over 50 years, including Vietnam, I was not ready for this. The only suggestion I would have is to have the didgeridoo playing harmony to the Last Post rather than the tune. The drone just shoots tingles up my spine.

    Haunting HARMONY.... if we do not acknowledge now, then when? Music shows us so powerfully how we can stand alone and still harmonise!! Let us learn!! We still have to rewrite and teach our true history stories across the world and our country, not just the history as written by the victors. We have already taken 100 years+ to get to this point...for our tre unity we must first acknowledge (truly) not because we are required by law etc. Then only can forgiveness happen and unity persist. Let us begin now..we are a land with a HUGE heart and a small population, we can do this!

      There is no racism on the battlefield. Your comment is valid however has nothing to do with the last post or Remembrance Day.
      All soldiers that serve and have served this country are recognised as ANZAC’s
      Please leave the traditions to the military and don’t bring outside politics into it.

    The Last Post represents all fallen soldiers. No matter their race. I’m not against this as a one off, but please don’t destroy the haunting power of the lone bugler by adding more instruments simply for political reasons.
