The third in the series of Clay Pipe Mini CDs is Cate Brooks 'Winterfest'.
"Outside Broadcast vehicles gather in the cold twilight, whilst lights glow and sparkle in the hotel lobby; such is the pure magic of the season."
I love winter and all the emotions the season stirs
within us. This collection of work is a paean to my winters of the past,
present and future; the situations I’ve found myself in and the promise
of those that could happen.
It all started with the unearthing
of a field recording I made over twenty years ago, of snow falling. It
was freezing out there and I had a microphone pointing skyward to the
falling flakes, in the middle of a field. It was fascinating listening
back to the textures, with a bubbling stream attempting to fight being
frozen, along with distant trains passing. With the passage of time,
these textures take on a very emotive hue. They are now woven directly
into the fabric of the work.
I’m hoping that Winterfest will accompany your winter activities, all the way from December to the end of February.
Cate Brooks, Nov 22
