Based on a 1902 study of wild bird songs, Judy Pelikan has adapted the original book and added wonderful illustrations of fifty birds as their songs are thoroughly analyzed as musical compositions. The analysis is presented in several forms ranging from basic dots (Cuckoo: .. .. ... .. ... ..; Flicker: .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .; to full musical scoring. Often lyrics are added to help with identification, e.g., Bob White Bob White.
There are also comparisons of some bird songs with musical pieces by composers including Beethoven and Mozart.
The reader also learns not only how the birds look but where they can be found and when they are most likely to be singing.
Pelikan’s THE MUSIC OF WILD BIRDS is a unique addition to the library of anyone who likes birds, their songs, and/or music.
