Voice_on_Record-55-Ludwig_Koch [1947, Ludwig Koch, 3:29]
Ludwig Paul Koch was a pioneering nature sound recordist. The BBC utilized his recordings to establish their library of natural history sound. Read more about him on Wikipedia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Ludwig_Koch_(sound_recordist)
Ludwig Koch was the first person to record the voice of an animal, recording an Indian Shama bird in 1889 on an Edison Cylinder. His interest in sound recording led him to make some of the most amazing field recordings over many decades, and we present excerpts of two records in which he is interviewed and some of his recordings are played and remarked upon.
