Grade 2+ string players will be captivated by this piece that pays tribute to the legendary bird of prey, whose populations are again rising as their ecosystems are increasingly restored. The driving rhythms of the opening D minor theme portray a falcon on the hunt, followed by a section in 3/4 featuring a rhythmic pulse that depicts the strong wing beats of a falcon's flight pattern. A major motif introduced in the Coda brings this work to a majestic close. Each set includes three copies of the 3rd Violin/Viola T.C. part and optional parts for piano and percussion (2 players). Duration 4:35.

An outstanding selection for the up-and-coming young band or smaller ensemble with limited instrumentation. A stately introduction leads to a melodic motive which is dramatic and bold, followed by a hauntingly beautiful ballad slow section. Limited ranges and technical demands make this work an excellent choice as both a teaching tool and a great selection for contest or concert .
