Description

Note from the arranger

My inspiration for this arrangement draws on the title itself. In our time when forests and the habitat of birds are endangered, my focus is on the woodlands. This resting heart rate music is appropriate for providing comfort and relaxation. The inset on the cover is my watercolor painting, Bluebird on Flame Azalea, both of which are native to North Carolina. It is my hope that this music will open your hearts to the beauty and wonder of nature.
