Skydancer takes flight

Skydancer (frag.) by Laurence Rose

Skydancer is a name given to the magnificent and much-persecuted hen harrier.   NATURAL LIGHT featured this species on the inaugural Hen Harrier Day, 10th August, just two days before the not-so-glorious opening of the grouse shooting season. 


Persecution by grouse moor interests has made the hen harrier our most threatened bird of prey.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow's premiere of my Skydancer, a short piece written for the London Contemporary Chamber Orchestra. 

It's at 7.30 on Saturday at St.George the Martyr, Borough High Street
