CAPUT sinfonietta, Gudni Franzson cond.
Squarcio has explosive energy and grows in overlapping crescendos. It may be divided into two parts, the expansive first leading to a denser, more layered second. The music is marked off by strong, polyrhythmic eruptions and everdenser crescendos that carry the piece to its close.
