The Prophet
(words Kahlil Gibran, music Clingan)
Our 2026 Musica Vitae concert program takes us through the major eras of western music - Mediaeval, Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic and 20th century, including several traditional and Afro-American favourites. The final three pieces in the first half exemplify recent choral techniques pursued by three extraordinary Australian composers - Liam Waterford, Ruth McCall and Stephen Leek.
After interval we will present Judy's most recent major composition, The Prophet (2024), settings of seven segments of Kahlil Gibran's poetical philosophy for voices and instrumental ensemble.
The performance includes Wayfarers singers and instrumentalists from Armidale, Bateman's Bay, Bowral, Canberra, Cooma and Sydney.

All proceeds from this event will be donated to Love Works Africa.
Love Works Africa is an Australian-registered Christian charity that cares for vulnerable children and families in rural Zambia through partnership with local communities and trusted leaders. Daily challenges in the village include poverty, food insecurity, and limited access to education and health care.
Currently 46 children and their primary carers receive hot, nutritious meals twice each week, while children are also supported with school uniforms, shoes, books, and essential stationery so they can attend school with dignity and confidence.
Our goal is to walk alongside families, encourage caregivers, and mentor and disciple young people. We want to equip the next generation of leaders, to bring lasting change within their own communities.
