His Life and Music

His Life and Music is a live album by Gurrumul and The Sydney Symphony Orchestra.

The album was recorded live at the Sydney Opera House for Vivid Festival in May 2013,[1] and released through ABC Music.

The recording features Gurrumul, in a world-first collaboration with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, performing a collection of songs from his award-winning albums.

Also included on the album are introductions from Gurrumul's family that provide a rare insight into the people, the country and the stories behind some of his most popular songs.

[5] Tyler McLoughlan from The Music gave the album 4 1/2 stars out of 5, saying; "Gurrumul has a habit of evoking an array of overwhelming emotions in a live setting that don't even exist in the toolbox of most performers" and "[it] is a thrilling piece of the live Gurrumul experience to take home".
