The Wilfreds Live at the Kelvin Club

Wednesday, May 29, 2024

6:00pm – 8:00pm

“Daniel and David Wilfred are celebrated traditional song keepers, Yolngu manikay, from the remote community of Ngukurr in the Northern Territory. Theirs is the oldest continuously practised music tradition in the world. They’ll be joined by collaborator, renowned musician and composer Peter Knight”

Composer/trumpeter, Peter Knight, formed Hand to Earth with the Wilfreds during an Australian Art Orchestra residency in 2019 along with Korean born vocalist, Sunny Kim, and clarinetist, Aviva Endean. Since then they have presented their distinctive synthesis of the ancient and the contemporary at major festivals and venues all over the world. They have also released two albums earning plaudits and nominations including an ARIA in 2022.

David and Daniel will talk about culture, country, and songlines, and will perform traditional manikay for what is almost certainly the first time in the Kelvin Club.

Cost is $25 for the show, beverages and food available.
