Some of my favorite animal songs are: Le Colibri and Les Papillons by
Chausson (La Cigale is best done by a high soprano), Les Quatre Petits
Lions by Milhaud, Mother Doesn't Want a Dog by Richard Wilson, La Petite
Hirondelle by Healey Willan, All the Little Horses by Copland, The
Aviary (five songs) by Richard Rodney Bennett, The Lamb by Ernst Bacon,
Zoo Illogical by Clare Grundman. Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Craig, Burnaby BC
