As dusk draws in, other creatures inhabit the river on wing. Agile, skimming the water, flitting, twisting, turning, half glimpsed in the night.

Becoming River .....a musical walk inspired by Salisbury River Park

Becoming River .....a musical walk inspired by Salisbury River Park

Karen Wimhurst, a South West based clarinettist and composer, has created a series of 8 short musical pieces inspired by the Salisbury River Park and the neighbouring Avon Valley Nature Reserve. Initial ideas for these compositions began on a wet dawn walk, recording on site, as well as underwater recordings made by Adrian Newton in the River Park. These varied tracks feature a number of musicians; Ed Bersey - percussion; Julia Blinko - soprano; Emily Burridge - cello; Paul Hutchinson - accordion; Ricky Romain - sitar; Robin Walter - guitar; Karen Wimhurst - vocals, clarinets, piano. A musical representation of this unique part of Salisbury, this music is a wonderful way to experience life on, in and around the River Avon Thanks to Amy-Jane Beer ‘the Flow’; Will Scott, Andy Wallis, Keri Jones. Recorded and mastered at Sylvafield Studios
