    A Million Nightingales

    Corvus Consort reveals how musicians and poets have drawn inspiration from their avian friends for hundreds of years, in a programme
    of choral music themed around birds.
    Charting a course from the 15th century to the
    present day, the singers of Corvus showcase
    their great versatility, performing renaissance
    madrigals, traditional folksongs, 20th-century
    British music, and contemporary works by
    leading living composers.
