This haunting CD tells the story of the original ANZACs in their own words, with music and songs. Told in 20 short segments using the voices of three fine young Sydney actors playing the soldiers and nurses from Gallipoli, along with songs from Katelyn O’Donoghue, Jim Haynes and Grant Luhrs.
David Wall on piano and Claire Brassil on cello help create the mood and you hear the troop ships foghorns, naval guns and sounds of battle as you take a journey through the Gallipoli campaign.
