	Gershwin, Piano Concerto in F, last movement
	Rondo form, 6 min., 26 sec.

			Rondo Theme			A fast theme built out of a syncopated motive is played
			A			first by the orchestra, next by the piano (in a new key).
						A modulation is carried out by the piano.
			B			Syncopated, bluesy theme (piano and strings; in a new key)
			A			Sudden return to A in the piano
			C			Jaunty muted-trumpet phrase--slowdown--trumpet again
			A			An expanded, developmental version of A, blended with the C motive
						A in the xylophone
						A in the piano, very briefly
			D			A sentimental new tune in the strings; the piano answers with C.
						Brass instruments play a loud contrapuntal treatment of C.
			A			Another sudden appearance of A in the piano and xylophone
			E			A new, playful tune in the strings (with piano runs); the piano answers with C, once again.
						Brief piano solo
			A			The climactic orchestral presentation of A; big slowdown
			B			A gong stroke introduces a loud, slow, swinging, version of B in the orchestra (the piano plays chords). This dies down for a moment.
			A			The climactic piano presentation of A, back in the original tempo; orchestral crescendo
			Coda			Nine powerful timpani strokes quote the first-movement theme. The piano winds the piece up.
