Evening in Transylvania III

I've completed the 'final' movement of my Bartok song cycle/octet/piano duet. This little nugget, I believe, complements and closes the cycle.

The form of the three movements should now be clear with this final addition. Besides Bartok's theme from his Easy Piano Piece, An Evening in Transylvania, the movement includes an obvious allusion to Shostakovich (quartet #8).

Evening in Transylvania, Scherzo and Lento (Sibelius)
