No Limits goes to the Awakenings Festival, a community and disability arts festival, in Horsham.
Sara McQueenie speaks to pianist Jeff Usher about coming back to the festival, blindness and how it relates to his work. Jeff wrote and performed the No Limits opening theme.
Festival director Denise Leembrugen talks about the 10th anniversary of the festival, maintaining the balance between grass-roots new performers and established stars, and plans for the future direction of the festival. This year's festival is the first year featuring participants from every state in Australia.
Artistic Director of the Tutti ensemble, Pat Rix, talks about the group's growth from 9 singers to a current level of 50-60, performing original material, and their sell-out opera in the Adelaide Festival. We also hear from ensemble members Alistair Brasted and Aimeee Crathern.
