Product details
Beautiful Birds showcases birds' characteristics in 3
distinctive movements -
I. Lyrebirds - skittish, quirky birds with a mischievous
temperament and an astounding penchant for mimicry;
II. Flamingos - elegant, stately yet slightly melancholic
creatures;
III. Hummingbirds - fluttering, quivering souls flitting from one
gorgeous blossom to the next.
Written for Ensemble Offspring, Beautiful Birds is a true
exploration of the trio's virtuosity. In this epic three movement
work an array of joyous bird calls are interwoven into dexterous
lines. While Lyrebirds establishes the piece as a highly
energetic celebration of sonic colours, Flamingos explores
delicious and still moments of quiet conversation between the
three instruments. The piece finishes with Hummingbirds,
mimicking the bird's fast yet ever changing humming in an
impressive display of swift-flying unison lines.
