Description Reviewer: "A performance of twelve short pieces which take on the character of one continuos exploration of sound, movement, and fabric".

Programme Description: "Sky Song is a rich and powerful integration of movement and sound, created through the blending of cello, wires singing in the wind, voice, whirly instruments and dancers. [...] Underlying the creation of Sky Song has been a resonance between the music of the wind, the space and energy of the Australian interior and the inner landscape of human emotions and interactions"
