Le Chant des Oiseaux, also known as Reveillez Vous is a renown chanson (poetic piece) for 4 voices written in 1529 by Renaissance composer Clément Janequin. This work employs several programmatic elements by means of imitation and bird sounds, and its singing lyrical lines coupled with fast rhythmic figures tell a story of the birdsong, who awakens sleeping hearts after a long winter slumber.
Arranged for String Quartet, with notes of the birds' calls assimilated in the score to facilitate the imitation of the birds.
