Songs about solitude, connection and the world's loneliest whale.

A free all-ages concert and refreshments, supported by the City of Yarra

Rorqual is an indie-classical concert exploring withdrawal, solitude, resilience, and connection, with new songs inspired by the true story of “the world’s loneliest whale”. Using found and repurposed texts drawn from the deep past to the present, composer Wally Gunn’s songs fuse classical and indie-rock music, featuring the ethereal vocals of jazz singer Gian Slater and the virtuosic musicians of Rubiks. From the ocean’s shimmering surface to its mysterious depths, and back, join us for Rorqual - the story of a modern-day mythological creature that continues to sing its one-of-a-kind song.
