On our property, we are constantly delighted by all the creatures of nature including a golden eagle, several hawks, songbirds, rabbits, chipmunks, and our favorite bluebirds, who play with us each morning and "fight" with each other to grab the peanuts. It’s what inspired the piece “Pastoral ~ Bluebird Park”, which is available to listen to now and was recently reviewed by the Indie Vibe online music publication.
The music is incredibly conversational. At times, the instruments dance together in lock-step fashion while other times, they burst apart. Branching out on their own into beautiful counterpoint melodies. Even though this piece was written about a location in California, each listen conjures up nostalgic images of the East coast during fall-time in my mind. Pictures of… bluebirds darting back and forth through trees singing, conversing, and competing for food instantly come to me. Pauline can turn vivid imagery into musical arrangements that are so captivating.
Pastoral: Bluebird Park is a must-listen for music fans who love music regardless of genre. The piece is equal parts elegant, enthralling, and emotive and will leave you wanting to push play one more time.
