£58.50Shadow of the Condor - Frank Erickson
Although music can be sufficient unto itself, it also may conjure images and ideas of many kinds to the audience (as well as the composer). It is not difficult to imagine the restlessness, the flight, the search for prey, the attack and the condor at rest during the many changes in mood of this composition. Few condors are alive today but this very fact justifies an admiration for its fight for survival in a hostile world.
