Re: Classical Music depicting Bird Song

["Roy Beckham" royefinch]

You might also look up some work by Dr. Luis Baptista from the San
Francisco Academy of Science. He passed away in 2000, but he published a
number of studies and articles on bird song. His interest was not in
actual recordings of birds in classical music recordings, but rather the
influence of bird song on composers. He could whistle a bird song for
you and then play a portion of a classical recording. These composers
are frauds. They rip off birds without giving due credit. ;)
