Soundscape Painting

I’m working on ‘Djupalónsdottir and Hellnarson’ a song for the Moving Classics commission. After recording South Iceland Chamber Choir singing wildlife calls outdoors on location in Snaefellsnes in Iceland, I’m composing these into a soundscape to feature around the singers during the live concert, recreating a fictional landscape on screens. There will be a left and a right video panel in the landscape scenery with different ‘colonies’ of calls. It’s a true balance to get the entire picture right. Today I feel I’m painting with sounds.
