I made this recording at Sea of Galilee very close to the spot where Jesus was supposed to walk on water. I guess this must be what he heard at that excursion. By the way: scientific study has suggested that rare atmospheric and water conditions could have caused ice to form on the lake. The research shows a period of cooler weather swept what is now northern Israel from 1,500 to 2,600 years ago. Sub-zero temperatures could have caused the formation of ice thick enough to support the weight of a man.

I’m Andreas Bick. I compose and I work with sound. This is my acoustic notebook. You can find my thoughts about books and CDs I like and some sound recordings I did on the way. (I also practise my english writing skills here, so excuses for the mistakes I make...) Silent listening is about the fringes of music, the periphery where music turns into sheer sound - concrete, wild, sometimes stunningly beautiful.
