Auditoria is a triple album of vocal pieces and instrumental tracks, originally issued as a 3-CD box set on the Sonoluxe label in a limited edition of 500 copies.
The album was recorded between February and August 2018, and was especially created to tie in with Bill's 70th birthday event, 'Plectronica โ Bill Nelson at 70', staged at Leeds University Clothworker's Hall on 1 December 2018.
The CD set went on sale exclusively to Plectronica attendees, the remaining copies went on general sale on the 3rd December - these sold out in less than 24 hours!
