Whistler's Brother from Skyland by Arts for Social Cohesion / Guy Mendilow Ensemble
People told us that the overtone singing sounds like a flute. So we decided to play a game in which we paired the overtone singing with Andy’s bamboo flute.
The bass drum sound is the gourd of the berimbau thumping against Guy's chest.

The Guy Mendilow Ensemble (GME) weaves moving stories through riveting scores, narration and theatrically projected sand animation. GME productions center on true tales of choices people make as they negotiate thresholds, personal or historical. GME is especially intrigued by decisions animated by generosity and grace in the face of upheaval.
