Product details
ABC Classic and Ensemble Offspring present a new album of original Australian compositions that celebrates the birds of the world - nature's own composers.
'Songbirds', is a surprising and beguiling collection of chamber works for flute, clarinet and percussion inspired by butcherbirds, blackbirds, lorikeets and leafcutter ants, frogs and flamingos. Originally intended to accompany the Ensemble's 25th birthday concert tour, Birdsong at Dusk (presented as part of Sydney Festival's Salon Series in 2020), the album is being released to celebrate both this major milestone and the creativity and endurance of the ensemble even in the face of a global pandemic.
