The Peacock Tree, for wind quintet (2017) by Laura Shipsey published on 2018-03-03T22:23:46Z The Peacock Tree lives in the imagination. It is at once a structure, and alive. Intense colours spark when the light is right. From afar its wonky outline reaches wide, stands solid, and is still. The Peacock Tree is not real. But, if it were, how would it walk? Recorded by the BBC Now Wind Quintet, Cardiff, December 2017. Genre Classical
