This material is presented in a variety of harmonic settings of increasing complexity and in a series of episodes that increase in tempo and transform the rhythmic character of the primary theme. The work is also meant to serve as a metaphor for ever-changing degrees of internal psychological conflict, and their eventual cathartic resolution.52 p.application/pdfengCopyright is held by the author, unless otherwise indicated.
