A spectacular CD, dedicated to the Nightingale. The main part of the recording is nearly an hour of modern Nightingale recordings, from different parts of the country and at different times of day. Accompaniment is provided by warblers, owls, woodcock, muntjac etc. Also included are historic recordings, expertly re-mastered, including the first ever bird recording, the famous 1927 recording of a bird singing as Beatrice Harrison played her cello and the competition between Nightingales and RAF bombers recorded in Surrey in 1942.
