Lyrebird Brass's debut album, Apex Predators, includes works by Australian composers or written in tribute to Australia and its inhabitants. The title is not only apt for featuring the premier recording of Catherine Likhuta’s work of the same name, but also because the ensemble's home country hosts many of the world’s deadliest creatures.
