Hilda Paredes presents Chaczidzib for piccolo alone.

The title of the work, written in 1993, stands for the bird Chaczidzib - translated, Chac is 'red' and dzidzib 'vibrations'. In the narrative underlying the work it is prophesied that there will be a clash between the black bird Ek Buc, who represents the conqueror, and the red bird Chaczidzib, who represents the Indian, that will precede the upcoming war between the conquerors and the Indians. The black bird Ek Buc is wounded by the red bird Chaczidzib, drawing blood. Ek Buc flees the battle and flies to the sea, and Chaczidzib sings a farewell; an expression of hope for an end to the cruel war of conquest.

Duration: 8'. For advanced players.
