Nicky and Peter have been partners in music, life and art for over 30 years and have been performing, teaching and creating together as well as pursuing their own projects. In the past 20 years they performed extensively as the duo Little Oberon. Their creative journey has always been strongly connected to nature and on a trip to the snowy river in 2006 they found themselves spontaneously composing a piece of music while camped on its banks. This was the birth of Essence of Place, a project that sees them traveling to places across Australia and composing music arising spontaneously from their relationship with the landscape.
