The thesis explores the relationship between the Australian folk revival and Australian Trade Unions. It provides a detailed study of events in the post war history of the union movement and the folk revival as evidence of a long relationship between them. Through a series of interviews with songwriters, and a discussion of folk revival magazines and folk song books, the thesis investigates the details of the connections between the two movements, and the social and political effects of these movements on changes that have occurred in Australia since the end of World War 2.

Teen Summer Challenge
https://www.vaughanpl.info/tsc/ Week 4, Challenge 1 Australian music – Past and present Indigenous music in Australia dates back over 60,000 years. The most famous instrument is the didgeridoo, which has been around for roughly 15,000 years. Australia also has a rich tradition of folk songs known as “bush ballads,” many of which were sung by prisoners sent to Australia by the British in the late 1700s. Additionally, Australia is home to many well-known contemporary artists, such as AC/DC, The Bee Gees, Keith Urban, Kylie Minogue, and Sia. Instructions: 1. Explore the music of Australia’s past: Listen to a piece of music featuring the didgeridoo or a traditional bush ballad. See “Library Resources” on the next page for examples. You can find traditional music on Naxos Music Library, free with your library card. Log in with your library card and PIN to access Naxos. 2. Explore the music of Australia’s present: Choose a contemporary artist from Australia and listen to some of their music. You can find many Australian artists on Hoopla Digital (see next page for ideas). Create a free account with your library card to stream or download music. 3. Claim your Ballot! Tell us what you listened to and what you thought. Did you like the music you chose? Share your opinion by sending us an email, with the subject line TSC, to [email protected]. 4. We will award your ballot towards this week's prize and the final grand prize draw and you will receive a badge in your profile.
