16    Putting the movement back together again   00:07

17    Mystic Circles of the Young Girls (complete) 08:16

18    On into one of the most sensational movements ever written     01:36

19    The violence is almost graphic. An example of musical terrorism 00:35

20    Motif No. 2: a terrible, off-beat com-pah from strings, horns and oboes      00:13

21    The air is filled with the fearsome baying of wind and violins       00:20

22    A variant of Motif No. 2, but now descending       00:14

23    A study in the bruality of suspense - a musical mugging       04:12

24    The middle section begins with a massive but unequal confrontation  00:27

25    Against the odds, the 'descending motif' comes out on top  00:23

28    A much-needed breath before the movement entire    00:17

36    A change of mood, then the whole orchestra crashes in       00:49

37    The steady pulse gives way to a tossed salad of one-bar motifs   01:06

38    Lately abandoned, the steady pulse returns, as does the 'trumpet motif'    01:06

39    The movement ends with a varied reprise of the opening    00:15

40    Evocation of the Ancestors (complete) and Ritual Action of the Ancestors (complete)        04:23

41    The last movement is based on two motifs, the first most motable for its rhythm       00:20

42    The second motif is likewise predominatly rhythmical in effect    00:16

43    Two variants: one a rhythmic simplification, the other an expansion   00:20

44    A new section, again with two main motifs, the first from wind and strings 00:27

45    This is joined by another bried but very striking motif from muted brass     00:20

46    Tension dramatically increased by a violent interruption from timpani and gong 00:35

47    Motif No. 2 is passed from bassoons to high wind and trumpets...       00:34

50    New ostinato, over implacable repetitions of Motif No. 1, offset by clarinets      00:26

51    A new section, kick-started by percussion: timpani, bass drum and gong     01:11

52    Horns, doubled by strings, introduce the main idea of this new section       00:18

53    The return of the movement's opening section - or so we may think   00:54

54    Dramatic compression of now-familiar material   00:40

55    A terrifying cocktail of motifs old and new confounds expectations...  01:00

56    ...and leads to the coda, the final flourish of the whole work       01:45

57    Cue to all of Part II and end of CD  00:10

58    Part II (complete)    18:58
