Picking up flight patterns they launched with Murmurations Vol. 1 and Murmurations Vol. 2, Bird Songs of the American West soars on the sonic updrafts created by four human voices accompanied by four wooden instruments. And just like the songs of actual birds, it’s a fascinating symphony of beauty and wonder.
