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 basic ambient tracks for this CD were recorded in and around the Sumter National Forest of central South Carolina originally on location for the South Carolina Aquarium (Charlotte). Lang Elliott contributed some of his exquisite recordings of particular bird species that are featured throughout.
CAROLINA WOODS is located to the northwest of Columbia midway across the state and represents a spring soundscape typical of that part of the southeastern United States. It is difficult to record in the eastern US corridor because of the very dense human population and lots of attendant noise (military, commercial and private aircraft as well as traffic and industry). But we managed to capture a few quiet moments of magic over a period of dawns that remind us of what this region must have sounded like just a few short centuries ago.
