Join us for a special solstice broadcast of The Sounds of the Winter Solstice, a soundscape and vocal performance by artist Zaneta. This piece is an excerpt of a larger work Invitations from the Land, which was recorded at WLC’s Israel Wittman Sanctuary in the Zena Highwoods. Drawing from field recordings captured at powerful celestial moments like solstices and equinoxes, Zaneta creates immersive sonic worlds where the forest itself becomes both stage and collaborator. Layered within these soundscapes are her sung responses, an intimate practice rooted in her Filipinx heritage and the tradition of singing to the forest passed down by her grandmother.
