What it is

- Experience the sounds of Oxford in this unique soundscape experience — live in the Museum of Oxford galleries & basement.We're collaborating with Cities and Memory to present a unique live show bringing together the sounds of Oxford itself with the talent of its musicians and artists.

Oxford's Sounds: Reimagined will showcase a selection of Oxford's musicians who have worked with a field recording of a sound from the city.

Each has then developed a piece of music or a song based on (and containing) that recording, which they will perform live at this event.This unique project sees artists being inspired by the soundscapes of our home city to create a set of songs that spring from the very sounds of Oxford itself - and a unique live event celebrating the sounds of Oxford as they've never been heard before.

Expect to hear snippets from: Cities and Memory, Kid Kin, Aphra Taylor, Water Pageant, Headphones Wasp, and James Warburton.More about Cities and Memory can be found on their webpage here: https://citiesandmemory.com/sounds-city-live-oxford/.Tickets to this event includes free entry to the museum and Sounds of the City exhibition.
