sounding out the peak district

6 12 2011

over the years, this project has taken me to great places across the country, ‘sounding out’ many sites from caves to forests, natural formations and churches alike. but, close to home, there are many locations that i keep returning to. some old favourites, and some amazing treats of both natural and designed acoustics.

below is a series of recordings which explore areas of the peak district
