Siberian Lament
Class: Original Piano Solo
Published: 1934.
Comment: The main theme, appropriately in the minor, is followed by a transformation into the major which works up into an impassioned climax before going back to the minor. Unexpectedly we hear the major version again, but the last four bars are minor.
The mood is appropriately melancholy.
