The opening\n\u003cem\u003eMisterioso\u003c\/em\u003e\n(\"Daybreak\") is followed by the principal thematic argument, presented within a textural \"haze\". This is followed by commentaries highlighting first the strings, then the woodwinds, then the brass. An extended transition (\"Pastorale\") leads to a series of playful scherzo sections alternating with energetic canonic passages, which form the climax of the work. \"Echo\" canons and a transition lead to the reprise (\n\u003cem\u003eMisterioso\u003c\/em\u003e\n) and a peaceful close.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"American Composers Alliance (ACA)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45138714951759,"sku":"ACA-FENB-112s","price":147.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/c032c7a1e47ab2bd47242fdf9821f905.jpg?v=1780075953","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/products\/fennelly-thoreau-fantasy-no-2-aca","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
