clock ticking
melodic sequence - a set of pitches which moves up/down
Inverted Pedal note on Dominant
Chromatic mvmt leading back to theme
quavers continue to sustain clock ticking
clock ticking in 3rds - notes of G major triad
Modulates to G Minor - Tonic Minor
Brass not played until now - play accenting the first beat of every bar - chords
Dotted rhythms taken from Theme
ascending scale - conjunct
descending sequence/dotted rhythms > imitated in violins & flutes
Imitation of descending conjunct scalic mvmt
Imitation - between violin 1 > violin 2 & cello
inverted pedal note
offbeat chords in bassoons
Clock ticking
offbeat
descending sequence
octaves - emphasise harmony?
Descending sequence - scalic & conjunct
Ascending chords in strings - played in 3rds
2 legato & 2 staccato
changes in dynamics
descending sequence in violins ascending scale in viola & bass - contrast
change in dynamics again - contrast
rhythmic idea from theme developed - extended and taken out of theme
viola counter melody - syncopated which contrasts with straight rhythms & aspects of sequence
pedal note - double basses
G major - C# gives impression modulated to dominant
Brass instruments not playing
Use of chromatic link between Minor and Major
cal & response
use of tremolo -= buiild tension to return to tonic
Ticking clock transferred to flute as well as bassoon - octave displacement of idea
Chromatic link used again but up octave for variation - links to theme
Flute - changes between staccato & legato
Dimished rhythm of chromatic link theme
Clock theme
Example of descending sequence in G major
Diminished rhythm of theme
Tick tock
Tutti link theme - changes to violins only and becomes ascending sequence
Pedal note on Eb
Dim to ff next section
Imitation between flutes and violins
Rhythmic variety/development - changes to use of tuplets
Ticking theme
Ticking theme
Call & Response
Juxtaposition of double dotted, straight rhythms and tuplets
Pedal note > Loosley related to theme
Rhythmic variation of Theme
Doubling of parts - thickens texture towards finale of movement
Use of further tuplets - triplets
Flutes, Oboes, Violin 1, Violin 2 - all playing main Theme - thickens texture further
TIMPANI plays Tonic pedal
TIMPANI plays Dominant pedal
Dynamics gradually get quieter towards end of movement
Ticking theme on bassoons
