Yes. Several years ago, for German radio (WDR), R. Murray Schafer,
father of the soundscape concept and word, recorded a commission
titled "Winter Diary." Since Schafer lives near Toronto off of Lake
Ontario, a kind of midwestern habitat similar to that of Chicago, all
(or most) of the types of soundscape clips you are looking for can be
found in that composition. More to your question, Schafer may even
have the original recorded samples from which his lovely piece was
made. He does not have email or a phone. But if you will contact me
off-line I will provide a way to reach him.
