I knew about other refugee-based additions to Australia's cultural scene - Richard Goldner and Musica Viva, Felix Werder, Borovansky Ballet, and many more. However, I had not previously encountered this group with its memorable name that so appropriately evokes different beats and rhythms - appropriate both for the music and acts performed by the group, and for the content and structure of the book. | Publication Type: | Review | Source of Publication: | Australian Historical Studies, 45(2), p. 289-290 | Publisher: | Routledge | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 1940-5049 1031-461X |
