Description

"There has been a fascinating wave of experimental and drone music in recent years placing the organ as the centrepiece of a meditative experience, expanding out and stretching the sound into a deep listening experience.  "This piece is in that tradition, taking four sampled layers of the organ and building a slowly-changing, contemplative ten minutes in which perhaps religious contemplation driven by the pure organ sound is augmented, or replaced, by a more spatial, bodily contemplation as that sound is exploded, fragmented, slowed and smeared all around the listening field.  "Every sound in the composition is derived from a manipulated version of the organ recording, and the piece was composed and mixed on a Torso S-4 sampler." Se Velha organ, Coimbra reimagined by Cities and Memory.  ——————— This sound is part of the Sonic Heritage project, exploring the sounds of the world’s most famous sights.
