Ellen Reid: Big Majestic
In this episode of Reverberations, we feature Ellen Reid’s "Big Majestic," which originated from Reid’s "Soundwalk," a multi-year sound installation that has traveled to city parks around the world. The album version of "Big Majestic" has been reimagined to provide a different sonic experience. Host Majel Connery and Reid discuss the genesis of the project, its evolution over time, Reid’s approach to creating music that interacts with the environment, and the key collaborators involved. This album is a joint release by New Amsterdam and Eclipse Projects.
