Sympony Finale

The finale to my symphony has turned very dark. I intended at first to contrast the opening with a faster major key section BUT the material connection just was not adequate to justify that. SOOO I have gone even darker and even dissonant with a return to the opening movements serial transitional passage being the chief theme of the finale's B section. This time, as opposed to hiding the theme in the classical textures of the first movement, I have the theme clearly in the center. Uttered in the winds at measure 34 of the movement. In a canonical passage. So far, this passage appears to be very rich and still not at conflict with the movement as a whole - which, I find, to be quite shocking...
