ABSTRACT
This article discusses some of the preoccupations of my recent acousmatic music: the evocation of place, the potential for the recognition of sources (even down to their specific locations, in some cases) and the associated concern with ‘space’, in terms of both geography and musical thinking. It is prompted by the release of my latest CD, Voyages (HARRISON, 2016). But this album did not emerge from nothing; it is the product of over 40 years of working in the studio (and performing with loudspeakers). It may therefore be useful to offer some historical perspective.
