About This Song
About "The Falcon: I. Vivace e ritmico" by John Rutter
The falcon here is all muscle and mathematics: a vivace e ritmico that darts and hovers on stabbing strings. Rutter paints the bird's predatory grace with clockwork precision, yet a nervous shimmer in the woodwinds suggests the sky itself is watching. Controlled ecstasy, feathers taut against the wind.
