[Bars 144–149]

We now proceed to study this scheme in detail. Nothing need be said about bars 141 to 145. In the next four bars the rhythmical subject is in the upper strings f in unison with two clarinets and an oboe. The brass mf is in close harmony and is kept low. If we had four horns at our disposal, we should probably use them here f. However, as we have not, we use the heavy brass. In its pauses the marcatos of the pedal-part are given to bassoons, cellos, and basses, plus one horn and the violas—note the addition of the two last-named.
