The Blue Bird, Charles Villiers Stanford (1852-1924), words by Mary E. Coleridge. Randall Wong, soprano soloist, Chanticleer, 1992. Dr. Wong's ability to sing soprano stems from his possessing and extraordinarily wide vocal range. Check my uploads of his opera recordings not released publicly. The lake lay blue below the hill.

A moment, ere the bird had passed, It caught his image as he flew.
