David Rothenberg makes music live with the sounds of nature, records music with other species, and writes books and makes films about the process. He has performed and recorded with Pauline Oliveros, Peter Gabriel, Ray Phiri, Suzanne Vega, Scanner, Elliot Sharp, Umru, Iva Bittová, and the Karnataka College of Percussion. His album, One Dark Night I Left My Silent House, a duet with pianist Marilyn Crispell, on ECM, was called “une petite miracle” by Le Monde and named by The Village Voice one of the ten best CDs of 2010. Rothenberg has more than forty other recordings on numerous labels including Gruenrekorder, Clermont, and Oslo Sessions Recordings.
His books and recordings in the field of interspecies music include Why Birds Sing on birds, Whale Music on whales, Bug Music on insects and Nightingales in Berlin on one very special species of bird and the humans who make music with them. These works have been translated into many foreign languages and have been the subject of documentary films and radio programs in many countries, including the BBC feature-length TV program Why Birds Sing and the independent documentary Nightingales in Berlin.
In 2024 he was part of the team that won a Grammy Award for For the Birds for best boxed set. It really is the best box set. Ever.
