Grammy-nominated composer and trumpeter Tim Hagans has assembled an ensemble of some of Houston's most creative musicians to celebrate the magical and mystical life of birds. In Hagans' new composition, the ensemble explores the reasons why birds sing, the perils they face with climate change and loss of habitat, and most importantly, the influence of their joyous song on city dwellers.
