Amazing Grace
Jul 14, 02:00 PM
Singers from a local Cameroonian church in Peckham take to the streets to sing a version of “Amazing Grace”, accompanied by an acoustic guitar.
The soundscape is lent a surreal edge by the robotic recorded voice advertising a closing down sale for Wow Peckham, the shop directly behind us.
Recorded by Cities and Memory.
Part of the Migration Sounds project, the world’s first collection of the sounds of human migration.
