Canopy Beat, Soundtrack of the Rainforest
sound composition

canopybeat_white2.jpg

"Canopy Beat / Soundtrack of the Rainforest" is a 30 min composition based on sound recordings made in the Brazilian Amazon forest. It was a great challenge to compose a dense and layered piece reflecting my sound memories and experiences of this trip. The rich amount of sounds and layers in this unique environment forced me to change my view and process of composing with field recordings.

Honorary mention:
Prix Phonurgia Nova 2011 
"The entire jury was impressed by the sonic preciseness and profoundness of the piece." The nominated pieces were at display in Gaîté Lyrique, Paris.


Canopy Beat_Soundtrack of the Rainforest  is broadcasted over several European radio networks and is displayed at Bozar in 2012 in the framework of Europalia Brasil.
