Product Information
`It was Jane MacFadyen on Iona who first gave me the idea of recording an island soundscape,' says Kenneth Steven. `The best ideas are often the most obvious, and finally it has been made: a melding of the wind and the waves, the laughter of children, the sounds of birds, together with some of the poems I have written over the years. This soundscape is for those who know Iona as much as it's for those who have always wanted to find a way of reaching Columba's holy isle.' With music by Wendy Stewart. Produced and engineered by Mark Rickards. Kenneth Steven is a poet, novelist and children's writer. He has also written and presented numerous poetry-related programmes for BBC Radio. Kenneth has known Iona from childhood: from that time he has felt it to be his spiritual home. Wendy Stewart is a leading Scottish harper, a world-class performer and inspirational teacher whose style and repertoire encompasses both traditional music and her own compositions: www.cairnwatermusic.com Mark Rickards is a senior producer with BBC Scotland and has recorded wild sounds from across Scotland and the world.
