About
The recording was by Chris Ekers, using a 'dummy head' microphone system and is best listened to on headphones to give the experience of 360-degree sound. In most of these pieces they were placed on opposite sides of a long rectangular space - facing each other or playing into alcoves in the walls, thereby generating reflected sounds. Others were made in a large space, a former refectory.
This way of recording very late at night is similar to what they did for Gavin Bryars's installation in the Chateau d'Oiron, A Listening Room (Chambre d'écoute).
This can still be heard in a special room in the chateau, and the recording is available on GB Records (BCGDCD08).
