Bird Tunes

Fiddle player and composer Miranda Rutter is joined on concertina by Rob Harbron to present Bird Tunes, an exquisite new suite of folk tunes with birdsong at their core. Miranda has crafted every tune in the project out of fragments of birdsong which she recorded on her phone during woodland walks near her home. The suite is both a love-song to the intricacy and beauty of birdsong, and a timely reminder of the struggles with habitat loss and human-made dangers faced by migrating birds today. The tiny, tall-spired St Peter's provides the perfect venue for this intimate concert, tucked away in a quiet corner of Cambridge with ancient trees , wildflowers and birdsong filling the church yard.
