Theme

“Don Quixote, the knight of the sorrowful countenance; Sancho Panza.”

_Moderato_, D minor, 4-4. The Don Quixote theme is announced by solo

violoncello. It is of close kin to the theme of the introduction. Sancho

Panza is typified by a theme given first to bass clarinet and tenor

tuba; but afterward the solo viola is the characteristic instrument of

Sancho.
