I Saw a Peacock by Brian Elias is a set of six songs for baritone and piano, commissioned by Wigmore Hall and premiered by James Newby and Joseph Middleton. Of particular interest to the composer was the eponymous poem; though generally anthologised as a nursery rhyme, it contains apocalyptic and almost biblical imagery.
