This is a musical setting of the whimsical poem, Adam's Task, by John Hollander. The musical depiction of many of the imaginary animals named by Adam is humorous. The sound clip is the initial performance at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music by Michael Mohammed, baritone, Randy Paik, clarinet, and Gary Friedman, piano. Unfortunately the recording is scratchy.
