Chamber Cairn
  in Jack's words:
"
I hear it as a kind of contemporary instrumental folk music for this landscape I call home, the continuation of a line, the keeping of a flame..."
 
Chamber Cairn
 is a personal waymarker, recorded shortly before the birth of my son and moving as a family to steward a woodland in Cumbria. It felt important to document this moment in my musical journey, as I wasn't sure when, or if I might be able to return.
It was recorded in two days, deep in the Cumbrian landscape.
I hope it's heard as subterranean, airborne, connected to the ancient but very much speaking from the present. I hear it as a kind of contemporary instrumental folk music for this landscape I call home, the continuation of a line, the keeping of a flame.
The four main pieces are interspersed with musical "Cairns" - improvisations using sound tables, stones and whistles. I commissioned the two tables from a local woodworker out of olive ash. They are tools for composing with gesture and amplifying ideas about soundscape ecology in my creative practice, I use them to make composition accessible to communities of people without needing a prior instrumental language.
Jack McNeill
I play clarinet and bass clarinet, write music and make things that happen between the worlds of live music, theatre and radio. With a background rooted in contemporary classical performance practice and an interest in folk and ancient resonances, the work I make moves between the seams that tie these elements together. I’m the Artistic Director of 
Propellor
, a 12-piece cross-genre ensemble - a creative engine based in Cumbria - whose performances, installations and multimedia projects map our collective experience of the natural world, through the lens of soundscape ecology.

苏河家园

During the trip to the UK, we came to the hometown of Peter Rabbit in Bowness, a small town in the Lake District of England. This little rabbit from the British countryside has healed countless people with its cuteness. The souvenir shops in the town and the Beatrix Potter Museum are all places to check in for Peter Rabbit fans.

Lake District National Park

Natural scenery

The lake area of England is magnificent, the lake is wide, the wooden boats are rows, the breeze is blowing, and the layers are rippling; the shore and the hillside are shaded by trees, and the air is fresh and cool. It is also the birthplace of Peter Rabbit, a classic image created by children&#39;s illustrator Beatrice Potter, and many of her works are set in the Lake District, which is worth a visit.
