Night of a Thousand Songs (audio CD)

Distilled from several nights and early mornings of field recordings, this CD brings you right to the water’s edge of a small waterhole in Madikwe Game Reserve, South Africa. In the span of about forty minutes you can experience a representative eight-hour night of sound, from the spectacular late-night chorus of frogs and toads, to the first threads of birdsong from the dawn chorus.

“Night of a Thousand Songs” CD with booklet

This recording may be enjoyed in many ways: as a calming background soundtrack for relaxation or exercise; as a meditation on the passage of Time; as documentation of a disappearing African wetland habitat; as a tool for the naturalist to hone his or her skills at identifying wildlife by ear; or simply as an experience of pure ambience—the living sound of life on Earth.

Includes an eight-page explanatory booklet.
