finding its way back into
the succession of themes
the tonal plan
fantastic elaboration
extremely high range
expressive pianissimo
a huge arch
unmitigated joy
inseparable feeling
an Alberti bass figure
soft staccato notes

clarinet playing in
its middle register
hammered out by timpani
a little melodic flourish
an ascending perfect fourths
Moderato section is born gradually
more exuberant and vibrant to the end

meditative chorale voices
is played softly by the organ

The Olympian power
The Odyssean adventure
brittle and percussive
shattering intensity
electrifying score
musical treasure

I would like to translate this poem
I miss the use of metaphors like you did in “Street Song”. This poem is more rational and the use of such general and abstract words constrains the imagination.
