In September 2024, Yara Mekawei conducted the workshop The City's Polyphonies of Sound with our our WEDDING AFFAIRS & RIPPLING OTHERWISE programmes. We are excited to now share with you a composition that weaves the recordings made by the ensemble that participated in the session and attuned together to Wedding’s sonic landscapes and to one another. The interactive sound walk through the neighbourhood's streets engaged with the its layered sonic stories, where participants listened closely to the echoes, rhythms, and resonances of the micro and macro of the streets and the songs shared by their bodies. This broadcast welcomes you to immerse yourself in the auditory frequencies, textures, and voices of the city and the ensemble: from their hands, feet and mouths, to the ears of the recorders.
The piece is produced and composed by Yara Mekawei, featuring sounds guided by: Marc Häuser, Diana Figueroa, Zica Pires, Buutz Boursiquot, Kulturpulse, Tolin, Santiago Calderón, John Anthony Perez,Moana Skambraks, Kyrylo and Anna, Kelly Krugman, and Lara Kamper.
