Gilded Sonata

{harpsichord solo introducing

the primary theme, delicate

ornamentations}

{vibrant bowed baroque cello enters,

doubling the bassline with

harpsichord

accompaniment} {soaring baroque violin enters playing the

central expressive

melody over driving

counterpoint}

{modulating key, spirited call-and-response between violin and cello,

harpsichord driving the tempo} {return to original key,

violin and cello unite in a sweeping final rendition of the

main

theme} {harpsichord fading out on a

sustained tierce de Picardie major

chord, trailing reverb}
