Die Odyssee der Großtrappen
Great Bustards (Großtrappen) are among the heaviest flying birds on our planet. 30 years ago, those outstandingly impressive animals were on the very edge of extinction: in Brandenburg (Germany), only 50 individuals were left in the early 90s, when a group of scientists and conservationists joined their forces in a common rescue project. Their tireless commitment is proving: extinction can be stopped.
The score consists of numerous layered guitar recordings in many different styles (picking, strumming, bowed, bottle-neck), combined with rather unusual instruments such as throat singers and celesta. This special combination of musical colours creates a mystical wild-west-feel, staging those amazing animals in the vast landscape of Brandenburg.
