The mythical phoenix symbolizes rebirth and rising out of the ashes. This piece explores a rhythmic motive that gains momentum as it develops, then dies away before rising to even greater heights. Set in E minor with D-sharp accidentals, the fiery theme uses accented accompaniments and dramatic dynamics to build intensity. A brief lyrical lull allows players to practice four-note slurs with optional shifting in first violin. Then the opening theme returns with even greater fire, growing to a glorious finale.
