Where Song Began is an acclaimed multimedia performance by the Bowerbird Collective, comprised of violinist Simone Slattery and cellist Anthony Albrecht. This duo was formed in 2017 to explore connections between art and science and to extend the appeal of classical music to a more diverse audience with storytelling and conservation themes. Where Song Began, described as "stunning" by Limelight Magazine, has been performed more than 60 times around regional Australia and internationally, in partnership with BirdLife Australia, and was released independently on CD in 2019. It tells the story of the evolution of songbirds, which appeared in Australia millions of years earlier than in other parts of the world, and was inspired by Tim Low's best-selling book.

Simone and Anthony are thrilled to have worked with the String Ensemble and Dr. Anna McMichael at Monash University in this first-ever collaborative expansion
of the project, featuring arrangements of Arvo Part's Fratres, Ross Edwards' Ecstatic Dance No.2, and Sarah Hopkins' Reclaiming the Spirit. The video includes beautiful footage and photography contributed by editor Anthony Albrecht, Steve Pearce, John Gollings and Henry Gold AM. Special guest appearances include Katie Yap (viola), Dr. Louise Devenish (percussion) and composer Sarah Hopkins from her home in Queensland. This is the first time her arrangement of Reclaiming the Spirit for strings and percussion has ever been recorded.
