Description Hand to Earth is a call to open your ears. Eluding genre, traversing continents and cultures and fusing the ancient with the contemporary, this largely improvised collaboration pushes the boundaries of musical forms. Against a backdrop by trumpeter/composer Peter Knight, David Yipininy Wilfred on yidaki and Aviva Endean on clarinet, Yolŋu songman Daniel Wilfred and Korean jazz vocalist Sunny Kim weave their voices into a minimalist soundscape, singing of timeless things – from the stars to fire to the cooling rain.
