This piece begins with stacked chords whose pitches then are used in a linear fashion. A broad melody gets started but is always interrupted by highly contrapuntal and staccato passages that still borrow from the main melody. Later stacked chords come back as a means of punctuation but they are more closely stacked to provide harmonic tension and contrast. The second movement is built upon a minor third motive introduced by the cello and is played with throughout the movement with an interplay between the three voices sounding like a dialogue and dance. The third movement comes in fast and somewhat furious with more biting dissonances releasing to a consonant end.
