Dennis Owen – has over 30 years’ experience in Vocational Education and Training, I have a passion for Australian Poetry, Music and History. I enjoy presenting an enlightening and captivating radio program that blends the magic of poetry, the power of music, and the wonders of history.

I am also a staunch advocate for promoting local talent. On my program, I go the extra mile to spotlight the incredible poets within our communities, giving them the opportunity to share their unique perspectives and celebrate their remarkable contributions. By providing a platform for these unsung heroes, I nurture and encourage a thriving artistic community.

I carefully curate a selection of Australian poetry that encapsulates the beauty, diversity, and essence of our culture. From celebrated works to hidden gems, I strive to paint vivid imagery through the skilful words of our talented poets and storytellers.  We don’t stop at poetry; we merge seamlessly with the harmonies of music. As I weave each poem into the fabric of the program, carefully selecting songs that enhance the emotions and messages conveyed. Whether it’s the haunting tunes of a classical masterpiece or the toe-tapping rhythms of contemporary tracks, the music interwoven throughout each episode amplifies the impact of the poetry, creating a truly enchanting experience for all listeners.

Whether you are a lover of the arts, a history enthusiast, or simply seeking moments of tranquillity and introspection, my program promises to take you on an unforgettable journey through the wonders of Australian poetry, music, and the untold stories of our heritage. Tune in, and let the magic unfold.
