An Analytical and Educational Survey of Roger Boutry's Mtachrome

the recapitulation by sequencing ascending and descending eighth notes using the intervals fromthe themes, specifically the tritone.The recapitulation does not include the primary theme, which is present in traditionalsonata form. Instead, Boutry goes straight to the second theme, in its original key, B minor. Itthen proceeds to the closing theme, but presents it similar to the end of the development section.There is then a lengthy coda, beginning with a fragment of the eighth note sequence thatoccurred at the end of the development section. The coda is similar to the development section inthe way it develops around the closing theme.The last two measures are contrasted from the rest of the movement yet still is a quotefrom the introductory motive, through the descending major third motion. The texture thins tothe piccolo and oboe and in the last measure the rest of the ensemble answers with anotherdescending major third, ending the movement on a B major seventh chord, including the loweredninth scale degree.
