With ears open to a sky full of song, humans have long been entranced by the original masters of melody, the birds.
Professional musicians fill the air with song, joining the hundreds of birds that migrate to our special region each May!
Celebrating spring with bird inspired chamber music featuring the marimba, percussion, cello, flute, piccolo, harp and ocarina and electronics. Including a world premier by by U of W graduate, composer, David Bergeron, that reminds us all of the importance of living in harmony with the birds around us.
