The form of this work is ABAB, where the A sections are areas that build powerful structures,and the B sections are meditative responses.
The first A section is a continuous stream of eighth-notes in three sub-sections:1) a long gradual build-up (mm. 1-21) to a long sustained climax (mm. 22-37)2) a medium-length build-up (mm. 38-45) to a medium-length climax (mm. 46-52)3) another long gradual build-up (mm. 53-70) to another long sustained climax (mm. 71-87),followed by a dramatic general pause (mm. 88-89).
The first B section also has three sub-sections:1) a short expressive organ solo with fluctuating tempo and dynamics in an overall slow andquiet state (mm. 90-94)2) calm instrumental solos over soft organ chords, wherein tempo and dynamics stay more orless even (mm. 95-114)3) a peaceful five-part chorale for the quintet, where the tempo moves more yet is untroubled,and the dynamic is soft throughout (mm. 115-132).
The return of the A section is one huge breath: a very long relatively gradual build-up (mm. 133-180)to a very long sustained period of religious ecstasy (mm. 181-217), and a general pause (mm. 218-221).
The return of the B section is another huge breath: a long expressive organ solo with fluctuating tempoand dynamics, that builds gradually and is joined by the instruments, to a climax (m. 238), which dissolves,as the instruments drop out, to a quiet cadence.
Just as a meditation requires a long period of clearing the mind and controlling the thoughts, so thiscomposition contains large areas of unchanged or gradually changing states.
