Interpretation of Gallo ciego

“Gallo ciego,” translated to English as “Blind Rooster,” evokes a sense of paradox, suggesting both vulnerability and a fierce, unyielding spirit. As an instrumental piece, it translates this duality into a dynamic interplay of melodies and rhythms that capture the dance of struggle and resilience. The music seems to portray an unseen battle, with surging violins and a steady, rhythmic pulse reminiscent of a heartbeat, conjuring images of the rooster navigating its world blindly yet determinedly.
