Description

This slow movement, the second movement of the Quintet, combines modal and diatonic ideas. Much is written over ostinato patterns, some melodies being long, others just one bar.

Textures are gradually built up from simple beginnings.

The music is designed to reflect its title and form a calm interlude between the outer movements.
