An extraordinary quartet from New York, a composer and an artist from Norway invite children from the age of 7 (and adults) to a participatory musical performance about the soundscape of the forest. The story is about the joy and the passion of collecting, collating and categorising materials and sounds that people encounter in nature when they pay attention. Accompanied by a narrator and the comic characters "Boss", "Bacall", "Sound T" and "DES", the visitors develop a museum of things and sounds from nature; they draw pictures, make sound recordings and produce sounds and noises themselves.
