Grey Ladies by Sybella Perry

Recorded at Grey Ladies stone circle, Elton, Derbyshire, UK, February 2013

Commissioned by Octopus Collective as part of a series of new works for radio exploring notions of space, Grey Ladies is a composition of field recordings that documents a series of attempts to resonate a stone circle. Using amplified and acoustic vocals alongside pure sine wave tones these exercises set out to test theories surrounding the construction of megalithic sites as acoustic environments.

The publication showcases a series of photographs taken by Daniel Irons during the recording process.
