Artist Mary Hooper is composing a sound track for this year’s Christmas lantern installation in the north staircase of the Pavilion. The sound track will be compiled from recordings of winter woodland sounds, footsteps in the snow, ice melting, and reindeer.

Mary would like to feature  voices of people from different countries saying “peace and goodwill” speaking in their own languages.

If you would like please follow the instructions  below – any age or gender or nationality is welcome to join in!

How to record:

  • Please record on your phone yourself, or a friend or relative saying “peace and goodwill” in your/their own language
  • Try to record without too much noise in the background.
  • Leave a short pause – count to 4 and say “peace and goodwill”
  • After you have spoken the words count to 4 again, stop recording and save.
  • Email the recording to  to ma.hooper1@btinternet.com with the subject line “Christmas message” or share to whatsapp on 07939645939 with the subject title Christmas message.

Thank you for taking part!  The deadline is Tuesday 6 December.
