Djuwaḻpada
Synopsis
Yolŋu songman Daniel Wilfred performs all over the world with his voice and biḻma (clapping sticks).
In 2019, he travelled with his uncle David Wilfred from South East Arnhem Land to Tasmania to share his manikay (ceremonial song) with students and to collaborate with the Australian Art Orchestra.
Featuring footage from his performance at the Arts Centre Melbourne, Djuwaḻpada is Daniel’s story – about the strength of culture and the power of collaboration.
