Scottish multi-instrumentalist and contemporary composer Erland Cooper’s music is capable of transporting you to another landscape. A musician steeped in the history and geography of his native Orkney, he was able to conjure the archipelago’s people and culture through an acclaimed triptych of records. His work combines field recordings with traditional orchestration and contemporary electronic elements. Through music, words and cinematography he explores identity, memory, and place.

In this specially commissioned piece, Erland takes us on a binaural journey from London northwards to his native Orkney islands. Listeners will be encouraged to put their headphones on and enjoy a 360° immersive mix comprising exquisite musical compositions and lyrical passages, archive recordings, and sounds from the natural world.
