Abstract:

The history of London’s markets is a noisy one, where the ambient buzz of the crowd is overlaid with the musical Cries of the people who work there. In this chapter, Duncan MacLeod reflects on the sociological and sonic history of those cries and draws them into a lineage which culminates with his own sound piece, “The Cries of London”.
