"WOMADelaide 2023 review "Theirs (Bandaluzia) is a brilliant blend, with all the technical underpinning of this most sophisticated music and dance, but a gleeful lack of restraint when it comes to conventional forms. The dance from Rosalie Cocchiaro and Jessica Statham is breathtaking, and the three-strong musical trio in a league of their own". The Advertiser, Adelaide.
