Recordist's notes

Five 10' high home-made bamboo wind flutes standing vertically in a circle of about 2m diameter. Four thick and one thinner bamboo flute. The wind was rising during the afternoon, a precursor to storm Ciara. The higher pitched notes come from the thinner bamboo. If you would like to commission a set of these wind flutes, then please get in touch. (SDMixpre10 + 2 spaced DPA4060)
