about

Young people throughout the Bay Area, from kindergarteners to high schoolers, were invited to contribute a sound inspired by the place where they live -- a sound from that place they found beautiful, or a sound they might want to add to that place in order to bring it more beauty. Their recordings were assembled to create a 75 minute sound installation for the Downtown Berkeley BART plaza, as well as this album.

Special Thanks to the Participating Youth Ensembles and their Directors:
- Piedmont East Bay Children's Choir – Ensemble (dir. Eric Tuan) and Concert Choir (dir. Andrew Brown)
- Maybeck High School – Audio Production Class (dir. Mario Godoy)
- San Francisco School of the Arts – Orchestra and Guitar Classes (dir. Tristan Arnold)
- San Francisco Girls Chorus – Training Chorus (dir. Natascha Bach)
- Zion Lutheran School of San Francisco – Handbell Chorus (dir. Kyle Hovatter).

Download includes a binaural mix (headphones required) of the live installation, made by Brendan Michael West.

The sound installation can be heard on Shattuck St., between Center St. and Allston Way, March 16-June 14, 2021 from 7am to 10pm playing at 75 minute intervals.

Commissioned by the Civic Arts Commission of the City of Berkeley.
