Additional info/contents	A delightfully melodic harbinger, Delius' On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring is a lushly beautiful pastoral work, with hints of cuckoo calls between instrument groupings. A peaceful, almost blissful, musical meandering, a five-minute respite during any concert program. The original orchestration is skillfully arranged for large wind ensemble. For advanced ensembles.
