Bird Songs at Eventide (G Major), Eric Coates, Piano Accompaniment.

Bird Songs at Eventide by Eric Coates (1886-1957).
Piano Accompaniment played and recorded by Pianist Friend for Singers.
This lovely ballad by Eric Coates-with its gentle mood of introspection and longing-was written in 1926 . ‘Royden Barrie’, who wrote the words (and also the words to A brown bird singing) was in fact Rodney Richard Bennett, the father of Richard Rodney Bennett. Born in Hucknall, Nottinghamshire, Coates had over 130 published songs to his credit, most of them before he made an even deeper impression as the master of elegantly tuneful light orchestral music. Barrie inspired Coates to some of his most successful songs, as witness the easy melodic invention of this example. This song, too, enjoyed popularity in French translation.

Another song that would be lovely is I heard you singing, also by Eric Coates and the middle voice is in C-major 😀

Thank you. Im glad you like it. I have injured my hand, so it's been a couple of weeks since I paused making the accompaniment tracks. I will resume the work as soon as I can play the piano.

It really is a beautiful song :3 I use to practice my sight-reading with your videos even if it's not part of my repertoire but I definitely have to add this to it. I haven't heard it with tenors but who cares? :V
