A sensitive work with which radio art and field recording composition pioneer Brunhild Ferrari revisits and recomposes her impressions of the past and her sensory reminiscences.
"Errant Ear was composed with this feeling of wandering, of strolling in my memories that I was able to capture with my ears, my eyes, my nose, all my sensations, things that my life is made of and that I keep almost like treasures. Here, I feel free to enjoy surprises, to rediscover my memories, to give them new life. I had the pleasure of using sound moments lent to me by Luke Fowler, Chris Watson and Luc Ferrari, and I mixed them with my own recent recordings and some of my archives from the 1970s onwards—albeit sometimes with painful joy."
The album-length title track was commissioned in 2024 by Kunst zum Hören ORF Ö1 and Radiophrenia.
Brunhild Meyer (born 1937) became Brunhild Meyer-Ferrari after she married with
Luc Ferrari. She has been his closest collaborator for more than forty years.
