You are purchasing high quality sheet music PDF files suitable for printing or viewing on digital devices.This is the first movement of my Second Symphony, which has four movements in all and, unlike No. 1, is for orchestra without voices. The whole work revolves around the confrontation of two sets of musical material, which are associated in my mind with 'terror' and 'beauty'. In the first movement these two ideas oppose one another and mingle but things end abruptly without any sense of resolution at all.
