Impressions of Cromer(Saffron Summerfield)
Impressions of Cromer Saffron Summerfield With this soundscape I created a jaunty tune as a basic canvas to reflect and bounce the sounds of this joyful seaside town in high summer. To me, Cromer has a strong ‘sense of place’ which echoes in the local voices I heard and recorded. The high-pitched sounds of commerce, the shifting tide, a happy fisherman and a general busyness weave below and above the promenade and pier. The raucous. unmusical calls of black-headed gulls and starlings mingle with the street musician and the metallic clang of slot machines. A local, soft voice gives a clear appreciation of what the town means to them. *** This soundscape was commissioned as part of the Republic of Reading project, funded by Arts Council of England. repofreading.wordpress.com

20 - Nineteen-Hundred (Alessandro Baricco)
Danny Boodman TD Lemon Nineteen-Hundred was born on a ship and on a ship he died. In between, he didn't play music, he played something else. And if you asked him what he thought about while he was playing, he would tell you about that time he was strolling on the Pont Neuf, waiting for sunset... Nineteen-Hundred travelled with his music, in his mind. We travel with books.

19 - Hopscotch (Julio Cortázar)
In 1966, Gregory Rabassa won the first National Book Award to recognise the work of a translator for his English-language edition of Hopscotch. Julio Cortázar was so pleased with Rabassa's translation of Hopscotch that he recommended the translator to Gabriel García Márquez when García Márquez was looking for someone to translate his novel One Hundred Years of Solitude into English.
