0:00-0:35 Lift and return

• The opening phrase gives the movement its rule: rise gently, lean, return.
• Structure begins as a thought being set down carefully, not as a dramatic scene.

0:35-1:10 Settled repetition

• The same shape returns with small changes of light and harmony.
• Repetition works as reconsideration; each pass protects the piece from becoming display.

1:10-2:02 Quiet gathering

• The middle reaches farther into the phrase without breaking its scale.
• The releases matter because the music keeps lowering itself before height becomes spectacle.

2:02-2:37 Remembered opening

• The opening material comes back with more distance inside it.
• The form now feels less like a beginning repeated than a memory being touched again.

2:37-2:55 Loosened close

• The late pattern breaks open the time between gestures.
• The ending releases the structure by letting the phrase stop needing its next return.
