The life of Winston Churchill

Blenheim Palace was the birthplace of Britain's most famous Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, and throughout the property there are plenty of reminders of this, including a dedicated permanent exhibition to his life. Attention has been paid to sound in the exhibition, which variously includes mockups of Churchill's voice telling stories about his childhood, Morse code to mark his years in the military, a typewriter to represent his authorial life, and excerpts from his political speeches. This recording is a walkthrough of the exhibition, taking in all of these sounds, on a tour of Churchill's life.  UNESCO listing: Blenheim Palace. Recorded by Cities and Memory. ——————— This sound is part of the Sonic Heritage project, exploring the sounds of the world’s most famous sights.
