About
Baroque music inspired by birdsong - soprano Dorothee Mields and recorder player Stefan Temmingh present a selection of magnificent and virtuoso works which not only imitate bird calls but very often also refer to the theme of love: from the nightingale to the goldfinch and from the cuckoo to hens, doves and various other birds.

A mood-board of all things avian...Mields reinvents herself vocally with tremendous skill, moving from folksongs to arias without affectation, and it would be hard to imagine a more daring partner than Temmingh.
