Recording
In the Quiet Hour of Autumn’s Edge
Artist:
Aomori, JapanNotes:
Recorded in the ancient beech forests of the Shirakami Mountains, a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site, this piece captures the fragile moment when morning and late‑autumn light meet.
In this untouched forest, silence breathes like a living presence.
Against that quiet, the birds of Shirakami draw delicate lines across the cool air—brief calls, distant echoes, voices suspended at the threshold of seasons.
What unfolds is not merely birdsong, but the forest revealing itself in its most tender hour:
a stillness that listens back,
a morning held between breaths,
an invitation to hear the world as it begins to open.
