On a sunny afternoon in Amstel Park you are unexpectedly invited to join a guided tour through

the lesser known areas of the park. You are curious and have time on your hands, so you join the

group that has gathered and follow them into the woods. After a labyrinthine route across small

paths and non-paths, you finally come to an old stone-walled space that breathes of times gone

by. You are asked to wait there and listen. The space seems to echo any sound that is uttered

there. Clear echoing transforms into new sounds and musical structures as layers upon layers of

echoes are added. A sound labyrinth is constructed as singers create a musical journey to even

further-off places.
