The Fine Hand
Send it by the Water
How do songs carry memories of home across centuries and continents? In Send it by the Water, innovative ensemble The Fine Hand explores the connections between medieval European song and the ballad traditions of Appalachia.
Blending historical performance, improvisation and folk traditions, they create a poignant journey through migration, memory, imagined homelands and the dreams we inherit.
Supported by the European Festivals Fund for Emerging Artists.
