When that goal is finally reached, it seems underwhelming compared to the emotional struggle nessecary to arive at it.
The Sonata’s structure is comprised of a tonal center and two tonal "subcenters" that are a major third above and below the primary center. The tonal centers are divided by range; the middle range being occupied by the primary center of A minor, and the extreme low and high ranges being occupied by the subcenters (F minor, and C# minor respectively). Each tonal area moves through harmonies approaching its center (or modulating away from it) equidistantly.
