[Instrumental Break] (solo celesta states a five-note descending theme in a vast empty room, low pizzicato bass entering off the beat, tension already awake) [Build-Up] (the theme repeats a step lower, bowed cellos gathering underneath, celesta quicker and less careful, energy rising) [Break] (all sound vanishes except one brief high-string pressure tone) [Chorus] (full chamber strings take the five notes at double weight, low horn warm and wrong beneath them, the final note turning upward like undeserved triumph) [Drop] (one fortissimo string blow, then abrupt stop) [End] ```
