Chris Watson visiting Island as part of Manx Wildlife Week
Underwater recordings made in the five major oceans across the world will be played to an Isle of Man audience next month.
Award-winning television sound recordist Chris Watson will share his presentation – Wavelengths: Songs Under The Surface – at the Manx Museum.
The event – on 4 May - is part of Manx Wildlife Week which runs from 27 April to 5 May; it aims to connect people with the importance of wildlife and nature.
Chris, whose work on Frozen Planet and The Life of Birds won BAFTA awards for Best Factual Sound, said: "These underwater recordings have been made in the five major oceans around the world and recorded with hydrophones (underwater microphones) and include the calls of humpback whales as they migrate across the North Atlantic and conclude with the song of the largest animal that has ever lived, the blue whale.
"At the opposite end of the scale, but equally fascinating, during my first visit to the Isle of Man in 2022 I recorded at the south end of Douglas Bay some wonderful, rhythmic, grating sound of limpets grazing."
Tickets for the event can be purchased via Eventbrite.
