Peter Wiegold The flowers appear on the earth
' The flowers appear on the earth ' was commissioned by the BBC and first broadcast in March 1979. Recently the composer has made a substantially revised version incorporating a part for an Indian instrument, the santoor. The title comes from the Song of Songs:
The flowers appear on the earth;
The time of the singing of birds is come.
