Well-being is a much-discussed topic among consumers and producers, and is now one of the requirements for quality production. Floor rearing is a good alternative for treating animals well, as it allows for environmental enrichment, such as perches and nests, and provides more space per animal. As it allows birds to express their natural behaviour, it is well regarded by society and has shown good zootechnical results. In the floor rearing system, chickens are raised in direct contact with the floor, which can be covered with different types of materials that encourage scratching and dust bathing. This system also includes nests, which are calm and slightly dark environments for the chickens to lay their eggs, and perches, due to their habit of perching to rest.

Complete Songs (High Voice): Sheet
Numbering more than 100 in total, and composed across a 60-year period, Gabriel Fauré's songs form the single most influential contribution to the field of French art song. Despite their importance, the songs have long been riddled with misprints and inconsistencies. This first complete critical edition is based on study of hundreds of manuscript and printed sources, along with evidence and interpretative advice from artists who worked with Fauré. Above all, it is a practical edition, informed by extensive work with musicians in performances, masterclasses and workshops. <p/>This second volume comprises the songs of Fauré's creative maturity, including popular favourites (Les Roses d'Ispahan, Clair de lune) alongside some lesser-known gems, together with his three vocal duets and the delightful four-voice Madrigal. Version for High Voice.
