The sounds of the Wetlands: a musical exploration with Karlin Love

Museum at Inveresk

Join us for an extraordinary sound exploration within the Wetlands exhibition at the Museum at Inveresk, as composer and musician Karlin Love leads us through the different ecosystems of the wetlands.

Water, mud, insects, birds, animals and humans create a multilayered sound experience for those who enter the wetlands. Karlin will guide you through those sounds, and share stories about wetlands' creatures.

Karlin will respond to the continuous soundscape with musical instruments and may invite you to join in to experience becoming one with the ecosystems.

Ticketed event - Places very limited for 2 time slots. All ages welcome.
