Description
Based on a poem by Rainer Maria Rilke, the melody is a setting of the poem itself, the text being present underneath the music as in a song. The music is pitch-centric and moderately challenging, with a mix of lyrical and florid elements. There are frequent rapid arpeggiations in the manner of imitated string multiple stops. The range extends to D5.
