Memorial Bells Soundscape, Bamburgh

I recorded a Soundscape - the ambience, arrival and departure of visitors and the audience listening to the choral performance of John Casken's 'Memorial' at St. Aidan's Church, Bamburgh, Northumberland during Armistice Sunday, 2023. The music was played whilst the audience sat alongside the sculptural installation by Keith Roberts of nine large Bells entitled 'Caporetto' marking the battle of Caporetto in Italy, 1917.
