Cosmo Sheldrake releases new album comprised of recordings of endangered birds
Multi-instrumentalist musician, composer and producer Cosmo Sheldrake releases "Wake Up Calls" - featuring sounds of engangered birds like the cuckoo, skylark or owl.
September 18, 2020
"Wake Up Calls" was created over a nine year period, using recordings of bird song featured on the red and amber lists of endangered British birds (with the exception of a Robin and a Blackbird, which aren’t endangered – yet). Sheldrake says: "I hope that it will help us to become more aware of the glorious polyphonic sound worlds that surround us." The album features: a Robin, Blackbird, Willow Warbler, Marsh Warbler, Ring Ouzel, Mistle Thrush, Nghtingale, Dunnock, Nightjar, Short Eared Owl, Long Eared Owl, Little Owl, Barn Owl, Tawny Owl, Turtle Dove, Cuckoo, Teal and Bittern.
