Hawthorn Trees and Metal Birds

Sounds inspired by birds and hawthorn trees in a selection of ambient and experimental music from Elizabeth Alker.

Elizabeth Alker shares sounds inspired by birds and hawthorn trees in a mix of ambient and experimental music selections. Expect gentle bursts of sounds from the Welsh countryside, the echoes of the curlew bird emerging from guitar duo Jim Ghedi and Toby Hay, as well as the sounds of a woodland in Scotland by a second pairing of guitarists in the show: Morgan Szymanski and Tommy Perman.

Elsewhere, the magic of choral music inspired by an enchanting hawthorn tree from American musician and composer Peter Broderick and East Forest, the artist name of the composer Trevor Oswalt; plus underwater aquatic colours and bubbly textures courtesy of musician, composer and lifeguard Rom茅o Poirier.
