Work Overview
In terms of structure, the work is in a highly modified ternary form. The opening is solemn; the middle section somewhat more lyrical, breaking out into triplets and increasing urgency; but then the opening returns, and in many guises, before the descent to end. The performer is instructed to play using rubato (robbing and giving back the pulse) whilst meeting the demands in using a very wide compass of the cello range.
