Cecilia Tyrrell is a Sound Artist and Composer from London. Her work combines field recording techniques, ambient voice and classical instrumental textures to create immersive soundscapes and compositions that explore hidden sonic landscapes of the natural world.
Her compositions have been described as mindful and lucid, crafting dream worlds that escape reality. As an avid field recordist, Cecilia embraces a mindful approach to audio creation, traveling to unique locations to record sound and resonance that would otherwise go unheard. These recordings are used throughout her work, forming a space for nature and imagination to intertwine.
Cecilia’s work has been used for meditation and has been broadcast and exhibited in the UK and internationally, most recently on Night Tracks (BBC Radio 3). She has a socially engaged practise, leading sound walks (recent client: North York Moors National Park) and listening workshops (The School of Noise), to reconnect our bodies to the environment around us.
Graduating with an MFA in Film, Video, New Media and Animation from the School of the Art Institute Chicago in 2021, Cecilia was a BBC Open Music Trainee for 23/24.
