The Last Scene is comprised of five large sections. They are an orchestral
Introduction of substantial length, the initial Recitative, the Sonnet 11, the final
Recitative and a short Coda. The dramatic action brought about by the text is
responsible for the scene's less structured form than the othet· thrce works in
this study. Each subsection in the 69 bar Introduction closes with a PAC.
Smaller sections in the Recitativcs result from either a change in mood (text), a
all musical elements. The appearance of the Sonnet is purely drumatical. While
the Countess deliberates in order to find an answer to her dilemma, she picks up
Flamand's manuscript from the spin net and sings it with her own accompaniment
on the harp. The Sonnet is the only portion in the scene that is in 3/4 meter.
