• The dance enters a new section with the bridge-passage of the music. The dancers perform slower and slower with the music. This passionate section is punctuated by sinuous curved walks and sinuous independent body movement.
• The dance enters a new section with the recapitulation of the theme of the music. The dancers perform quickly with the music. This proud joyous sinuous section is punctuated by raised left arms and loudly percussive curved walks.
• The dance enters a new section with the coda of the music. This section is punctuated by independent body movement.
