Analyzes
It comprises two parts: a brief Adagio , which gives a report on a calm but worrying sea (“a major silence reigns in water”), followed by a Allegro , which develops amply starting from a reason exposed by a Flûte (“the cloud tears, the sky becomes clear”). The piece ends in a Fanfare of Trompette S which suggests the relief and the joy of having regained the dry land without encumbers.
This opening, with the purely descriptive music, is certainly not a masterpiece, but its skilful instrumentation makes an attractive page of symphonic music of it. Its execution lasts 12 minutes roughly.
