Ntaria Ladies Choir (or Hermannsburg Ladies Choir) are a choir from Hermannsburg in Central Australia. The members are aboriginal women from the area and they sing a mixture of English and Arrente. The choir has its roots in work done by Lutheran Pastors Kemp and Schwartz in 1887〔(Peggy Glanville-Hicks Address ) Listening to History: Some Proposals for Reclaiming the Practice of Music. By John Rose〕 They created an Arrente language hymn book from which the choir sang in the early years. Other choirmasters have included Pastor Carl Strehlow, Pastor Paul Albrecht and the current choirmaster Pastor David Roenfeldt. Since 1970 it has been a ladies only choir.〔(ABC – australia adlib ) Inkat'irbirberintjaka: Ntaria Aboriginal Ladies Choir〕 Albert Namatjira may have sung with the choir in the 1950s.〔(The Australian ) Religious choirs a constant across desert generations〕 They were the subject of the documentary ''Cantata Journey'' which tells the story of their performance with the Sydney Symphony in May 2003.〔(University of Wollongong ) Creative Arts Dean to feature on ABC-TV Arts program〕 This performance was recorded on ABC Classics. ==Discography== Albums * ''Tjina Kngarra (the Best of Friends)'' (2011) – (Tracks of the Desert Inc ) * * ''Ekarlta nai!''
