The Great Animal Orchestra was one of the books about field recording I took more pleasure and knowledge from. A lot of what I looked for in field recording was expressed here, with lightness, amusement with a new level of environmental consciousness.
And so, as you can imagine, it was with great joy that I was invited to join Bernie and Katherine to talk about the art of field recording on The Quiet Mark Podcast, hosted by the brilliant and charismatic Simon Gosling.
We talk a little bit about ourselves, what field recording means to each of us, careers and our relationship to natural environments.
I hope you enjoy this conversation with legendary Bernie Krause, Kat, Simon… and myself
Also, a reminder that The Great Animal Orchestra exhibition is at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, until May 2022.
