Here the poet writes of the sufferings of a hunted animal, and in the music Holman has portrayed the cruelty of the hunt. The yellow of the sun and the hot sky contrasts brutally with the red of the fox's brush, and of the blood which flows when he is killed by bullet and dagger. (2:55)

An arrangement of Rachmaninoff’s famous ‘song without words’ for chamber orchestra (double woodwind and strings) by conductor and composer José Serebrier.
