Synopsis

Album Description
Lincoln Meadow is one of those places you think you remember from a dream. Luckily, I was able to capture this High Sierra site east of Yuba Pass on tape a year before it was completely clear-cut and no longer accessible. I arrived on June 15th, 1989 when the meadow was still mottled with traceries of unmelted snow and brown grasses were not yet green. Wildflowers sprouted all around me as birds nestled in tufts of vegetation and low-lying bushes everywhere I gingerly stepped. Believe it or not, a stream glinting with trout ran right through the middle of this scene. This recording is a reminder of what extraordinary beauty there is to be experienced in the natural world...a testament and ode to the Lincoln Meadow that many human and non-human creatures once knew.

Wonderful !

"This is among the very best nature recordings I have every listened to - and I have been collecting them from all over the world for years.As an avid hiker, it reminds me of those few exquisite days, when I happen to hit it just right, that the earth's music unfolds like the most compelling symphony.Gorgeous !"
It's very relaxing but by no means boring.

"I thought this cd would be background noise that I would, for the most part, ignore. It turned out to be very soothing, but also, astonishingly interesting. I think sometimes our busy, industrialized lives lead us to ignore nature's simple, but profoundly beautiful intricacies. This cd is a welcome reminder."
Another good one.

"One more time Bernie Krause has made an outstanding recording of natural sounds. I live in a very large city where natural sounds exist, but not as dense as the ones recorded in Green Meadow Stream. It is the density, fabric of sounds that gives this album its real pleasure. I use Krause's recordings, this one is my third, to truly relax. You might say I have not even heard the whole thing since I fall asleep concentrating on the sound of the stream and the bird calls. His very best recording is, however, Kalimantan: Heaven Before Time, truly beautiful. No doubt about it, you have to like this sort of thing to appreciate sounds of nature as foreground. As background sound this stuff will drive you nuts."
