Congaree Nomads

Directed by Nathan Halverson

Video to accompany composer Michael Pisaro’s composition Congaree Nomads, which is one disc of a 3-CD set titled Continuum Unbound released on the Gravity Wave label. The piece takes as its basis 24 three-minute recordings made in the Congaree National Park in South Carolina by Michael Pisaro and Greg Stuart along Cedar Creek and the Kingsnake, the Weston Lake and the River trails. It is a “nomadic” series that moves very gradually from the Creek to the Congaree River. Instrumental harmonies made by Pisaro and Stuart overlay the field recordings.
