about

Recorded in April 2020 during the UKs lockdown in response to the Covid 19 pandemic. It became a habit to go to our front doors or balconies every Thursday at 8pm and clap to thank key workers, in particular those in the health service, for their work while the majority of the rest of us were confined to our homes. Our own village was no exception and in addition to clapping there was much banging of saucepans and someone even got out a hunting horn for the occasion. The short piece took a recording of one of the “clap for the NHS” sessions and looped parts of it. What came out was something vaguely akin to those ethnological recordings of some indigenous tribe made by some earnest academic. Thus we have “Healer celebration dance by Oxfordian highlands indigenous people.” It’s a celebration in the face of adversity.
