Note that this rendition has been pitch-lowered about an octave to appeal more to our human musical sensibilities, but otherwise it is an entirely natural earth-expression, with no layering of multiple recordings to densify the soundscape. So … without further ado … please listen to the following, which is my well-meaning attempt at affecting an alchemical transformation of my original field recording from base metal to gold, with the aim of distilling the “Celestial Music” perhaps contained therein. But upon further examination several days ago (almost exactly seven years later), I was shocked to discover that I had actually captured a soundscape worthy of considerable admiration and praise. I was disappointed with the recording for reasons I will explain later, and I almost threw it away. In early July of 2016, I recorded Hermit Thrushes and White-throated Sparrows singing at first light at Spring Pond Bog, a Nature Conservancy Preserve located in the Adirondack Mountains in northern New York.
