Ex.20b: Symphony No.1 movement II, flutes bars 87-9.<br />

Ur r t f @ , di z l 1<br />

<strong>The</strong> first eleven bars <strong>of</strong> section B2 show Lilburn .toying with<br />

various characteristic figures from theme 2 in the woodwind against a<br />

string background <strong>of</strong> the theme's original accompanying figure. Here<br />

One can see evidence <strong>of</strong> motivic <strong>development</strong>. <strong>The</strong> flute phrase <strong>of</strong> bars<br />

98-101, for example, is obviously drawn from the first three bars <strong>of</strong><br />

theme 2:<br />

Ex.2Ia: Symphony No.1 movement II, flute bars 98~101.<br />

Ex.21b: Symphony No.1 movement II, clarinet (as sounding) bars 28-30.<br />

<strong>The</strong> oboe phrase <strong>of</strong> bars 96-9, to give a further example, melds the<br />

characteristic embellishing figure <strong>of</strong> the beginning <strong>of</strong> theme 2 with the<br />

characteristic rhythm <strong>of</strong> the new guise <strong>of</strong> the opening accompanying<br />

figure from section AI:<br />
