Yesterday I sketched the ending of the A section for Time in Memoriam. Currently it is only a sketch as most of the twenty-seven measures are only one or two voices. Over the next week I intend to fill out the section and finish the sketch score for the piece leading up to the B section.
It took me some time to figure out how to approach this part of the piece. I tried a few different ideas including a gradual increase in the tempo or adding a rhythmic pulse in an attempt to increase the intensity. In the end what seems to work is a slight change in tempo and a couple of themes that are motivically and harmonically derived from the preceding material.
There is still quite a bit of work to be done, but at least progress is being made.
