about

Die Kunst des Güterzuges (Ein Kunst ohne Kunstler)
The Art of the Freight Train (An Art without an Artist)

Dedicated especially to those who might just possibly enjoy it as much as I do.

Between midnight and dawn, freight trains crossing a 1925 bridge, and road vehicles crossing an 1879 bridge (that was originally constructed for the passage of steam locomotives), spanning a river and adjacent floodplain pasture: trains, road vehicles, bridges, and the surrounding environment, as 'musical instruments' and as 'music'. A suite of seasonal recordings. So far, six recordings have been made, each at a different time of year and from a different position. This is a selection of three recordings from the suite.
