In The Dark What’s New: The Sounding Bell

Garling Wu and Jessie Leov (NZ 2024)

6 min

A composition of field recordings, voice, piano and cello, made in response to the climate crisis. "The Sounding Bell" shifts freely between the concrete and abstract, moving from the real to the imagined to the surreal. Many sounds were recorded in Toyama, an urban city in Japan surrounded by mountains, rivers, rice fields and the sea.

Composed by Garling Wu and Jessie Leov
