Laird Crow, Leaside
Laird Improv with Crow
Where this remnant of a massive warehouse once stood near Laird Avenue in the Leaside neighbourhood of Toronto, I discovered the most incredible space to record. A crow greeted me that day, and the recording suggests that it acted as my guide as I sounded a primitive flute in the underground, cavernous lair that lies beneath the surface of the earth at this location.
I returned to record here a second time before the entranceway was bricked over, and this can be heard in the post entitled Werther’s World. On the same site there still remains a separate and equally incredible second warehouse, where I recorded on a couple of occasions, once using a flashlight to light my music!
Right, it suddenly makes sense: Laird Avenue~Underground ‘Lair’!
