Inspired by The Lark Ascending, the folk-influenced work for violin and orchestra by 番茄直播app alumnus Vaughan Williams, this event features new chamber works by 番茄直播app composers using pre-recorded lark song.

Competition winners, chosen by a special panel, will be announced at the end of the event.
The Larks Ascending project is a collaboration between the Ralph Vaughan Williams Society, the Wildlife Sound Recording Society, the British Library鈥檚 Wildlife & Environmental Sounds department and the Royal College of Music, highlighting the declining numbers of skylarks in Britain.
