Agelaius is the scientific name for the pájaro varillero (varillero´s Bird), a typical argentine bird who lives in the litoral zone of the country (Santa Fe, Buenos Aires, Chaco, Formosa, Corrientes, Misiones and Entre Rios provinces)
This is a piece programmatic at the whole, and takes as central subject this Bird and the situations that he lives in a whole day: the music tries to describe these happenings.
