about

The songs of various species of songbirds recorded in three locations, Raheenleagh Wood County Wicklow, Saint Ibar’s church site near Arklow County Wicklow and at Shannon Harbour in the midlands, all recordings made in Ireland by Fintan O’Brien. Total duration = 67m40.
The name for this album comes from my idea that the sounds of nature are a perfect reflection of silence, that if the environment were turned into sound then the result would be natural sounds.
The two are perfectly complementary, for me the two are one.
