From my solo album The Garden of Earthly Delights

FOREST SONG

Étude (for 3 voices) was composed for the Juice Ensemble and premiered by the vocal trio on 10th of October 2017.  Recorded at City University of London.
The piece is part of Études, a larger body of work; scores suitable for any voice.

Sharon Gal - Etude for 3 Voices -  Juice Vocal Ensemble

The first track from forthcoming CDr release, The Garden of Earthly Delights, with Visible Near Midnight Recordings.
The Garden of Earthly Delights explores bioacoustics, field & found recordings; focusing on the voice and its cross- species expression by different animals. The music includes a range of sounds, utterances and expressions by various types of birds, monkeys and human voices. 
The pieces emerged through a process of layering, bringing together unrelated found sounds, and new recordings of my own voice, Glass and Bells. Some of this was left as is and untouched, while other material was manipulated, reshaped and treated electronically, ending up sounding nothing like the original. 
This process of juxtaposing and merging sounds by diverse species which do not necessarily interact or share the same environment, gave rise to an imaginary landscape. I was recording at home and sounds were flowing in from outside; garden birds’ chatter mixing with the calls of exotic birds, London’s Crows and Magpies in a fantastic dialogue with Howler monkeys.
