David realizes he is in love with Leni |
| Description: |
Slowly growing string idea, expanding as David's feelings for Leni expand; starts as very soft, dissonant violin clusters, followed by wedgelike expansion and a crescendo, leading to some romantic melodic writing highlighting a tender suspension at the climax |
