Ancient strings, living spirit.
Witness musical history as chamber music masters the Brodsky Quartet meet master yidaki artist William Barton to create a performance that revolutionises the idea of what a string quartet can become.
In this profound musical dialogue between traditions, baroque precision meets ancient breath; European chamber music encounters First Nations wisdom.
Barton's yidaki doesn't merely accompany the Brodsky's pristine strings, it converses with them, in sonic dialogue spanning millennia. From Henry Purcell's baroque geometries to Peter Sculthorpe's dreamtime landscapes. From Leo禳 Jan獺ek's intimate confessions to new works born from Australia's burning heart, this program traces an extraordinary arc through time and culture.
