Title Yawulyu songs sung by women from Willowra
Description Recording #GC4.1.2006.1-5
Yawulyu songs sung by women from Willowra
(except Lucy Napurrurla Dixon who joined in after awhile who is from Yuendumu)
Date: 4th January 2006
Place: Wariyiwariyi – where we were camped close to the business ground
The women from Willowra came over and said they were ready to record now. This had been discussed earlier and they said they wanted to.

Names of singers:
May Napurrurla
Molly Napurrurla
Nora Napanangka
Nancy Napurrurla
Lucy Napurrurla Dixon

Molly Napurrurla was the main singer – seemed to start everyone off. Lucy did this a bit after she arrived too. Also Nora Napanangka was very excited about doing the recording and kept turning around to Yasmine to see if she was doing okay. May and Nancy were a lot quieter than the others but knew all the songs and often were involved in the conversation about which one to sing next. People were again talking in a whisper when discussing which one to sing so this may not be audible.

*At the beginning Nora and Molly were saying to Biddy Napaljarri that she should be singing this one too. She shook her head and didn’t sing. Nancy had to leave half way through this recording and Lucy came in her place.
