Alaudidae are a family of ground-dwelling songbirds. Most larks, including meadowlarks and skylarks, fall into this category. This short piece for Grade 3 performers was composed for the twins of a childhood friend. Light and lyrical, the piece is designed to be performed with some freedom of expression.

Recorded Spring 2021 by the Rowan University Wind Ensemble and Dr. Joseph Higgins.
