We travel to Ireland with “The lark in the clear air”, here in an arrangement by James Whitbourn. This cherished folk song celebrates the beauty of the natural world. Whitbourn’s arrangement preserves the simplicity of the original melody, as it soars like a bird above the fields, looking down over gentle harmonies which paint a vivid musical portrait of a sunlit landscape.
