Join us for an evening of deep listening and resonant sound as Hand To Earth bring their deeply expressive music to the stage alongside a rare solo performance by Indonesian sound artist Sipaningkah.
In this one-night only performance, Hand to Earth (AUS) and Sipaningkah (ID) create transformative sonic landscapes that bridge the ancient and the contemporary, merging the spiritual with radical edges of sound and listening
With their fusion of Yolngu Manikay and minimalist ambient music Hand to Earth invites audiences into a timeless dialogue, where ancestral songlines meet the possibilities of sonic abstraction. The Wilfred Brothers deepen this intersection, weaving cultural heritage with raw improvisation, advancing the practice of intercultural collaborative performance.
Hailing from West Sumatra, Sipaningkah offers a distinct voice, blending indigenous Minangkabau rhythms with experimental rhythm and tone. Sipaningkah’s performance explores the convergence of traditional and modern forms, building an evocative sonic environment that speaks to both the past and the future.
Together, these two acts create a dialogue of cultural exchange, celebrating the universal language of music that transcends time, geography, and tradition.
