Used in close canon, this melody represents the intertwining DNA molecule, hence the title of the movement, Double Helix. ° 4 4 B 4 œYœ œ œ œY œ œ œ œ œœYœ œ œ œ œ Yœ œœYœ œ œœ œ œœœ œ p œYœ œ œ œ œ œ Yœ p œYœ œ œ œ œ œ Yœ p # >> 4 œYœ œ œ œ œ œ œ œ Yœ œ œ œ Yœ œ œ œ Yœ œ œ œ Yœœ œ œYœœYœ œ œ œœ p f # >> ¢ 4 œYœ œ œ œ œ œ Yœ œYœœYœ œ œ œ œ œYœœYœ œ œ œ œ œ Yœ œ Yœ œ œ œ œ p œYœœYœ œ œ œ œ œYœœ œ œ œœ Yœ Y œ œY>> œœ œYœ >> œYœ œ œ œœ œYœ >> œYœ œ œ œ œ œYœœYœ œ œ œ œ œ Yœ œ Yœ œ œ œ œ Fig.5: “DNA” melodic line in strings (Movement III, mm.25–28) Discovered recently in our history, genetics are playing an increasingly significant role in our future. This music looks forward with the hope that genetics will be used in a positive way. It also acknowledges that we carry with us the characteristics of previous generations (covering a whole millennium and more!), and that the future will be significantly shaped by these characteristics. At the same time we need to learn from the hard lessons of previous generations in order to make progress. Consequently, the symphony has an optimistic and celebratory end, which is tempered by a sense of warning. In the coda, the threads of double helix motifs are combined with a return of the main theme from the first movement, played on full brass. f f f f Instrumentation 2 Flutes (2. dbl.
