The windharp heard on this record was built by Norwegian Sverre Larssen. It is an instrument with strings that are brought to vibrate by the wind, thereby creating tones and overtones, which, in turn, are enhanced in a resonant body ... an instrument reacting directly to the air stream and creating this sound image of the wind.

The wind was recorded by Jan Erik Kongshaug on the coast of Southern Norway, a place particularly suitable because of the unending gusts of wind coming in from the North Sea.

Disc face: Made in W. Germany
