VOCES8: The Blue Bird by Charles Villiers Stanford

VOCES8 sings 'The Blue Bird' by Charles Villiers Stanford at the VOCES8 Centre in London. TEXT by Mary E. Coleridge The lake lay blue below the hill. O'er it, as I looked, there flew Across the waters, cold and still, A bird whose wings were palest blue. The sky above was blue at last, The sky beneath me blue in blue. A moment, ere the bird had passed, It caught his image as he flew.
