Percussive sounds filled up the background with cymbal strokes and the bass drum stroked to set the rhythm and tempo. The wind section and percussion section gradually increase the amplitude, slowly building up the mood and intensity of string and percussion strokes.

The phrasing of the notes is such that there is descent from the middle octave to the lower octave. .
