Sonaré.Summary: This film traces the development and performance of a piece of environmental music written by Canadian composer, R. Murray Schafer. Twelve trombonists positioned around the shores of an unpopulated lake play meditative music across the water to one another at two specific times of day, dusk and dawn. The music is cued by Mr. Schafer himself from a raft in the middle of the lake, while the natural inhabitants of the surrounding landscape respond and contribute to the music in their own way.
