Sound Installation
In English

Trumpet pioneers from around the world were interviewed about their perceptions of sound, their social, geographic and political environments, and their specific playing techniques and musical genres. From these experiences, Marco Blaauw composed a global trumpet sound from an enormous variety of trumpet-like sounds from many cultures. This radio play was awarded with the EBU Palma Ars Acustica. The jury praised “its outstanding approach to travelling the world using trumpet instruments, incorporating not only man-made instruments but also sounds from the environment, such as animals and birds. A subtle journey through the ancient rituals of the horn or trumpet.”
