About the Artist
Renowned naturalist and sound designer Dr. Bernie Krause has traveled the world capturing the soundscapes of exotic natural environments. Dr. Krause began his groundbreaking work in bioacoustics and environmental recording in the late 1960's, and much of his work has been accomplished with techniques and technologies that he personally developed. His "In A Wild Sanctuary" (1970) recording earned a place in history as being the first recording to use environmental sounds as both a central component of orchestration and as a statement about the environment.
Dr. Krause's diverse achievements include 10 recordings for The Nature Company that have enjoyed over $24 million in gross sales over a period of 6 years. Development of the audio technology innovation known as the Intelligent Show System (for public exhibitions and installations), and his Music and Word Series of spoken word documents that include "Ishi - The Last Yahi." Dr. Krause recently published the book "Wild Soundscapes" (2002) that includes a full-length CD featuring a sampling of natural sounds.
Product Description
The meadows to the east of and above Gray's Lake Wildlife Refuge in Idaho used to offer some surprising biophonies -especially in the late spring. This particular dusk chorus was made while following the path of spring as it moved north 16 miles a day. It was there that I camped alone one evening among the forest sounds that engulfed me. Alive with voices of many kinds of birds and insects, this jewel meadow offered a moment of refuge from the noise of the road and distant cities. For me, it signaled a time of renewal expressed by the voices of the divine.
ALPINE MEADOW is located to the east of Gray's Lake Wildlife Refuge in S. E. Idaho. This recording was made while following spring as it moved north 16 miles a day. The soundscape is an example of a rich June evening chorus in a western alpine meadow.
