Sound Garden spatial soundscores are played through a temporary sound installation of up to 70 small, remote, battery-powered speakers, each playing a different part of the whole piece of music, composed by award-winning composer / designer JG Everest. Each speaker is housed in various handmade vessels, including wooden birdhouses, felt sculptures, and ceramic and metal urns. The sound environment and soundscore is further enhanced with pitched windchimes and live, roving musical accompaniment by members of the Free Range Orchestra & Choir, and, of course, the ongoing “concert” of sounds already occurring in nature.
