"Deep plowing should be done only when the soil is dry". This sentence was said to me by my grandfather - an old farmer who spent his years working under the blazing middle eastern sun. The Hebrew in his mouth is rough and harsh, and sounds almost like the heavy machinery he used to work the land with.
The way that a plough cuts through the soil and the way that the vocal cords mold the breath is being observed in this piece by musicians holding instruments.
