“el arte de los aborigenes australianos nace de la
musica, porque la musica es, o fue y sigue siendo para los
que sobreviven, esas pequenas comunidades invadidas y desarraigadas
por los europeos, como el agua para los peces y el aire
para las aves, su elemento natural, el medio ambiente fisico
y espiritual que todo lo modela, orienta y organiza.”
Mario Vargas Llosa 2002
