Sacred Spaces

Elizabeth Alker shares entrancing ambient sounds performed inside and inspired by sacred spaces.

Elizabeth Alker shares entrancing ambient sounds performed inside and inspired by sacred spaces. These include the gentle swells of an improvisation between electronic composer Zbigniew Preisner and vocalist Lisa Gerrard, recorded in a synagogue near Krak贸w; and there鈥檚 a stunning choral collaboration from Erland Cooper and Shards, imagined within a derelict mythical church on a mysterious holy island that鈥檚 part of Orkney; plus Laura Cannell's musical conversations between the carved stone floors of a church in Suffolk are dreamt up into a rattling and dense ambience track.
