Searching far beyond our modern world's honking horns and buzzing machinery, he has sought out the truly wild places that remain, where natural soundscapes exist virtually unchanged from when the earliest humans first inhabited the earth. ... more About Author
The Great Animal Orchestra - Hachette Book Group
A lifetime of field, lab, and soundscape production experience combines in an astonishing story clarifying, among other themes, how animals taught us to dance and sing! Krause's book reveals how perceiving the world through the the voice of natural soundscapes links us to a vast array of related disciplines — including biology, natural history, environmental studies, linguistics, physics, field recording, politics, architecture, religion, medicine, philosophy, literature, resource management, and more — where the aria of life itself has only just begun. The emerging field of soundscape ecology (as differentiated from acoustic ecology) is central to the premise.
Wild Sanctuary
Naturalist BERNIE KRAUSE has spent forty years listening to and recording the natural world. He’s traveled the world, capturing the sounds of over fifteen thousand species and making four thousand hours of wild music – insect larvae, snapping shrimp, Algonquin wolves, coral reefs, baby vultures and crying beavers. And many of the animals and natural places he’s recorded no longer exist.
