Why it's fantastic

This programme follows the migration of birds through the eyes of various living composers, inspired by everything from Scottish Gaelic tradition to the movement of starlings. It is a rare chance to hear multiple premieres in one afternoon, capturing the sounds of the natural world through delicate, modern string writing.
