Ex. 14 |
Finally we arrive at the second subject. Sir George Grove commented, |
"The 'second subject' proper arrives unusually late, but when at length it appears, in the key of B flat, it is a passage of singular beauty --more harmony than melody, and yet who shall say?....Strangely little use is made of this beautiful passage in the working-out. In fact, touching as it is, it only re-appears in its place in the due course of the reprise". |
