Not surprisingly, the natural world is a never-ending source of fascination and inspiration for composers.
From the datura plant in southern China to a rare bird in the wilds of Australia to strange animals that exist only in the composer’s imagination, we’ll feature music inspired by the boundless creativity of nature.
