Skylarks are the heralds of an English countryside. Ethereal. A precious symbol of beauty, peace & grace. Their music is the quintessential sound of spring. Their exuberant spirit inspires poets, composers & farmers. The Lark Ascending. A beautiful poem by George Meredith that inspired the English composer Ralph Vaughan William’s charming composition. In the trenches of the World Wars, they were a reminder of the chattering meadows at home. We watch in wonder as they climb the sky & find delight in their joyful singing.
The Soaring Life Of The Lark explores the marvellous music & poetry, the breath-taking heights & the struggle to survive of one of Britain’s most iconic song birds. Simply, beautiful.
