Sir David Attenborough and Chris Watson in conversation
Tuesday 10 August, 7.30pm
The Royal Institution, Albemarle Street, London W1S 4BS
Chris Watson’s wildlife sound recordings are perhaps best known through his work with Sir David Attenborough on BBC television series including The Life of Birds, The Life of Mammals, Life in the Undergrowth and Life in Cold Blood.
In this discussion, illustrated with tropical rainforest recordings used in Watson’s Whispering in the Leaves installation at Kew Gardens, Chris Watson and Sir David Attenborough talk about the animals heard in the piece, their experiences of filming and recording them, and the changing environment of the rainforest through the day.
The conversation will be introduced by Richard Ranft, head of The British Library Sound Archive.
