The Musical Stones of Skiddaw is an ongoing project for schools and communities in Cumbria and beyond. Chris Stones of SoundWave talks about the project

 

Soundwave

In 2007, Soundwave began working with Keswick museum to explore two remarkable sets of musical stones and their creators. The result was a remarkable performance inspired by the stones, Javanese gamelan and traditional storytelling techniques through puppets.

This was the starting point for a Cumbrian musical journey which led local musicians and storytellers into the heart of Fleetwith Pike!
