Cosmo Sheldrake // Lump // Matekoi (live)

IF - Immersive Fields is a brand new festival working with artists to create fully spatialised audio-visual installations - live and pre-recorded - taking the audience inside the music, bathed in sound and light.

Cosmo Sheldrake ‘Wake Up Calls’ 360° album installation
’Wake Up Calls’ was created over a nine year period, using recordings of bird song featured on the red and amber lists of endangered British birds (with the exception of a Robin and a Blackbird, which aren’t endangered – yet).

The album starts at night with a Nightjar and a Nightingale. The music progresses, track by track, through dawn and day time, round to the evening chorus and back to night with another Nightingale and an Owl. Cuckoo Song, is composed by Benjamin Britten and features the sound of a Cuckoo singing above Britten’s grave in Aldeburgh Cemetery, recorded by the soundscape ecologist Bernie Krause.

LUMP
