The “Love Theme” of this work is presented by the violin after a short piano introduction which itself is based on the “Love Theme” mirrored. These two themes, the original and the mirrored, alternate, then gradually intertwine until a portion is heard simultaneously. The instruments then begin to exchange this theme portion building to a climax of a few measures in unison. The coda highlights the first interval of the two themes (a major seventh ascending and a major seventh descending) moving to a unison note which represents the Biblical passage, “These two shall become one.”
