DVD available to purchase at: https://divineartrecords.com/recording/symphonic-visions-new-music-for-silent-films/ All period archive footage is courtesy of Screen Archive South East, University of Brighton Brighton: Symphony of a City was commissioned by the Brighton Festival and premiered live at Brighton Dome on 11 May 2016 by the Orchestra of Sound and Light conducted by Ed Hughes.

Created as part of the MA Digital Media Arts course at University of Brighton, this unique soundwalk captures some of the key 'soundmarks' of Brighton & Hove and places them in public spaces. Some of these field recordings are to be found at the site of their initial recording and others have been processed and collaged and then placed in locations away from the site of their capture. Either way, the listener is invited to reconsider how we listen to everyday sounds (noise) in relation to the urban landscape around us.
