Harri Viitanen's three
passions are the organ,
nature and the stars, and
he combines the first two
of these in Images
d'oiseaux. The birdsongs
which function as an
important element in the
work were studied from
recordings made in the
vicinity of Viitanen's
home: they are the
nightingale, pied
fly-catcher, blackbird
and great tit. The work
is written for a three or
four-manual instrument
with the addition of two
clicking stones which
contribute to the
birdsong effects.
