Notes
Programme NoteThese 'Episodes' consist of five short, separate, contrasted movements. The 12-note row on which all are based is stated in direct, untransposed form in an introductory Prelude for cor-anglais solo, an accompanied version of which is returned to at the end of the fifth episode by way of coda.
