Event Details
The idea of acclaimed composer Andrew Ford, Red Dirt Hymns is a collection of secular hymns with lyrics by some of Australia’s finest writers.
Working with poets including Sarah Holland-Batt, John Kinsella and Ellen van Neerven, Ford has created a collection of songs that sing praise to the everyday. Be it in the shape of a vase or desire by a river at dusk, Red Dirt Hymns sings of an Australia we all know and love.
If the Birth of Bel Canto is a concert exploring the beginnings of bel canto music, in Red Dirt Hymns we invite you to explore the art of song today.
