German-born Hildegard Westerkamp studied flute and piano at the Conservatory of Music in Freiberg before emigrating to Canada in her early twenties. After completing her music studies at the University of British Columbia, she joined the World Soundscape Project at Simon Fraser University under the direction of R. Murray Schafer. Her involvement with this project not only prompted deep concerns about the encroachment of noise and the general state of the acoustic environment, it also changed her thinking about music, listening, and soundmaking. The newly founded Vancouver Co-operative Radio provided an invaluable opportunity to learn about broadcasting and ultimately enabled her to produce and host her weekly program, Soundwalking, in 1978/79.
Hildegard was a founding member of the World Forum for Acoustic Ecology, an international network of affiliated organizations and individuals who share a common concern for the state of the world’s soundscapes and has served over the years as a mentor for people pursuing careers in soundscape composition and acoustic ecology. Her own compositions, performed and broadcast in many parts of the world, engage with such aspects of the acoustic environment as urban, rural, and wilderness soundscapes; noise and silence; music and media sounds; human voices of all ages; and the sounds of different cultures. She has composed film soundtracks, sound documents for radio and has produced and hosted Musica Nova as well as Soundwalking on Vancouver Co-operative Radio.
