harmonically a minor third higher (onE-flat) than theme I (on C). This has implications for the recapitulation section as we shall see later. The development section of the composition interweaves motivic material from themes I and II in dialogue between the viola and piano. The interplay of this material yields to a focus on the main melodic idea of theme I with which this section climaxes. Example five reproduces the sequential build-up to the climax marked triple forte at measure 83.
