Voices of the Rainforest
is a recorded soundscape of a day in the life of the Kaluli people of
Bosavi, Papua New Guinea. As the day progresses, one hears birds, water,
insects and other ambient voices of the rainforest interspersed with
Kaluli songs and instrumental sounds of work, leisure and ritual. The
album was recorded with Mickey Hart's advanced field recording gear by
anthropologist and ethnomusicologist Dr. Steven Feld. Feld’s closeness
to the Kaluli people afforded him a unique recording opportunity, and
the quality of the recording equipment yielded among the clearest aural
experiences of the rainforest short of being there. Voices of the Rainforest was issued in 1991 as part of “THE WORLD” series (now part of the Mickey Hart Colection made available by Smithsonian Folkways).
