Great Masters - 2
Jean C Roché
It was once said that there are two musical groups of animals, humans and birds. Jean C Roché, one of the world's most accomplished recordists, makes another superb choice of bird songs from around the world reaffirming their prowess. It includes favourites like the Skylark and Blackbird as well as more unusual species from other continents. Delicate fluting whistles contrast with the heart-rending lament of Great Northern Diver and the immaculate duets of White-rumped Shamas. 72 min.
