extended by a series of deceptive cadences Te concluding cadence at m 86 (no

longer ambiguous as in the exposition Ex 183 m 21) is reinforced by an entirely

longer fused (as they were in the A section) but rather are given their own distinct

thematic units (transition mm 51ndash71 subordinate theme mm 72ndash86)
