Infinite Nightingale (England)

from Sounding Nature - reimagined sounds by Cities and Memory

/

about

"The nightingale is known throughout the world for its beautiful intricate song - the bird itself far more often heard than seen. For this piece, we wanted to put the very song of the nightingale under the microscope, to give it a forensic and deep examination. The main drones are various passages of nightingale song slowed down to 20x and 30x their normal speed and pitch-shifted. Over the top of that, processed sections of nightingale call punctuate the piece, and out of the microscopic examination of the pure sound, a different kind of music starts to emerge, perhaps the DNA of the nightingale's song."
