The sound of oars dipping into water, the comands that go with rowing
competitions suffice to create in our minds whole landscapes of rivers,
lakes, the sea, a variety of images of boats purposefully gliding through
the water - even while in reality our bodies may be far removed from
any such scene.

The power of recorded sound is a special concern to all of the Austrian
composers/artists who contributed to this CD. All of them have in the past
produced special pieces meant to be broadcast on the radio and/or on the
Internet. One could call them media-artists. For this project each of them
received a cassette containing the sounds you can find on the first two
tracks of the CD. They were asked to use the samples in a short composition
that in turn could be become the material for live mixes.

During the junior worldchampion ship 850 young rowers representing 48
nations  received a CD as a souvenir of the event,presented by organisor
Werner Pfeffer.

greetings
