Return to Wonderment, is a performance collage of live jazz and poetry that honors humanity's connection to Earth and highlights ways to deepen our rapport with nature and our commitment to ecological renewal. It features Daniel's original compositions and new arrangements of jazz standards tailored to Thandiwe's rhythmic recitations of poems and popular song lyrics. In a varied mix of solos and duets -- interwoven with illuminating video images -- this evening's length performance creates an inspiring space for refreshing the mind, listening to the heart, and celebrating the beauty and wonder of our shared home.
