Canopy

Composition

Duration: 15min

Commissioned by Sven Anderson and Dublin City Council for Continuous Drift

Complementing the organic form of the 'bulrush' umbrellas, this piece evokes sounds from a forest canopy. The shifting sonic texture evokes the detail of leaves blowing in the wind as well as more diffuse gusts in distant tree-tops. The porous structure of the sound alternately masks and reveals the ambient sound of the urban square.
