Take a musical stroll past a farmyard, a detour by the sea, ending up at a gallop through the bird-filled glades of a European forest. Baroque and folk music styles find common ground in these beautiful and entertaining pieces from the 18th century. Vivaldi and Biber brush shoulders with Scottish composers such as James Oswald and Robert Bremner all offering a musical description of a bird or animal.
