South American PhoNographic Mornings #10 - Adina Izarra "TamarindoEs"

Stéphane Marin presents a series of fifteen short soundscapes recorded in the mornings at various locations throughout South America. Entitled « South American PhoNographic Mornings » this series for Resonance Extra forms part of a wider project, « Each Morning of the World », which invites sound artists, composers and recordists globally to share their own specific point of listening, either through a raw field recording or original composition.

In this edition: "TamarindoEs" - written for the South American PhoNographic Mornings’ project during 2017. The recordings are made in Parque Centenario, Plaza Baquerizo by myself in December 2016 and a Mirlo by Cerro Blanco Forest by Juan José Ripalda. The sellers calls are very common in squares and streets in Guayaquil. Water, socks, and Tamarindo juice (Tamarindo Es) meaning “tamarindo it is”.

Some synthetized sounds copy the venders calls, bird songs and parraquite singing (Typical of christmas).
Parraquites (pericos) arrive in flocks during the last days of december, and fly all through Guayaquil until the month of March, resting in many parks and city trees.
