How can we describe the exquisite song of the larks? How writers and poets have tried... Larks are the messengers of our countryside. Their music is the definitive sound of spring. The spirit of English pacifism inspires poets, composers, and farmers. In the trenches of the First World War, they served as a reminder of the flat meadows back home. Perhaps you rose early like the larks or felt happy like them. Our history has led us to compose and set to music the bird, but also to capture and eat it. We watch as they soar into the sky, delight in their joyful song, and yet we harm them. The Flight of the Lark explores the music and poetry, the rebellious heights, and the struggle for survival of one of Britain's most iconic songs.
