Summary/Abstract: Over the years, the composer Felicia Donceanu has distinguished herself in contemporary Romanian composition by using an original sound language, which combines traditional techniques with modern ones under the influence of her creative versatile artistic spirit. The “Baby canary” lied for soprano and viola da gamba or lute is part of the cycle of lieds “Singing with Ienăchiţă Văcărescu” made by the composer between 1983 - 1984 on the lyrics of Ienăchiță Văcărescu, this being the first in the series of four that make up the cycle. The present study represents its compositional analysis.
