Music for People, Birds, Butterflies and Mosquitoes

Music for People, Birds, Butterflies and Mosquitoes is an album by American jazz composer and arranger Jimmy Giuffre which was released on the Choice label in 1973.

Reception
Scott Yanow of Allmusic states: "The music is moody, fairly spontaneous, and melodic, but often wandering and rather insubstantial... None of the songs clock in over 5:37, and although they form a sort of suite, the overall results are not too memorable".
