REVIEW: SoundWalk: A City
Full of Stories
PUBLISHED ON April 17, 2024 by Ben Breen
Rati3 out of 5.
A pleasant half hour exploring a small
pocket of the West End
A soundwalk is a guided walk exploring the intersection between location
and sound. In this case, landmarks around Charing Cross are paired with
orchestral music and lyrics. Starting at St. Martin in the Fields, A City Full of
Stories takes participants around the hustle and bustle of London’s West
End, and shows how quickly this can transition into serenity when you
know the perfect side street to duck into. The resulting half hour provides
a nice walk alongside a pleasing musical accompaniment.
