Messiaen’s Des Canyons aux Etoiles: The Binaural Mix

Listen to a special binaural recording of this live performance from the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Proms 2019. This mix is best listened to on headphones, which will allow you to experience the full spatial effect.

The ‘wild and colourful beauty’ of Arizona inspired one of the 20th century’s most striking works – a sprawling sonic meditation in which birdsong mingles with desert winds. Sakari Oramo conducts the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú SO with soloists including Nicolas Hodges.
