Notes From The Wild: The Nature Recording Experience
Recordist/Credit: Bernie Krause
Bernie's personal adventure, presented here from his first
published book, and told though his private field journal notes, invites us
along on a musician's exploration into the natural world. Krause's journey,
toward blazing a trail in 'bio-acoustics', begins with recollections from
childhood -- and proceeds through the philosophical and scientific inquiries
formed by his mindful observations in the wild. His story is compelling and
entertaining. Read by the author, with additional sound and music clips from
Krause's own unique audio archive.
"Notes from the Wild is a wondrous
story of the meaning of music and sounds of our natural environment. Bernie's
research into the subtleties of animal and insect sounds is unparalleled, but it
is his description of the radical changes that were taking place on this planet
that really makes one stop and wonder. Listen carefully, for the sounds you hear
may never be the same again."
-Sir George Martin
Producer, The Beatles
