To make the soundscapes, Peter Mummé has travelled to fifteen different places throughout Australia recording onto tape the natural sounds of dawn of the wildlife (especially birds), water and vegetation of the region. He then took the recordings to his home in Victoria and composed original music to be blended in. The result is a striking celebration of music in nature. Called New Day, these fifteen pieces represent Tropical North Queensland, the Northern Territory, coastal New South Wales and the Victorian Highlands, filled with the sounds of gang gang cockatoos, wattle birds, corellas, jumping fish, frogs, crickets and a thunderstorm.
