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.

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.
