She arranged five of them for viola and piano as well. They are remarkable, atmospheric and colourful character pieces. The carol \u003ci\u003eIn dulci jubilo\u003c\/i\u003e is used as the centrepiece for \u003ci\u003eWeihnachten\u003c\/i\u003e (Christmas). The first piece has a calmly undulating, sometimes almost weightless character in a widely dotted 9\/8 metre. In contrast, Karfreitag (Good Friday) flows in a sombre B flat minor, interrupted by threatening, dramatic sections. \u003ci\u003eAuferstehungsfeier\u003c\/i\u003e (Resurrection celebration) is certainly the most unusual in formal terms, and also the longest of the five pieces. A rhapsodic character with many smaller tempo and mood changes develops into almost orchestral splendour. \u003ci\u003eHimmelfahrt\u003c\/i\u003e (Ascension) follows with much more restraint, often in a flow characterised by triplets and syncopations. The cycle concludes with \u003ci\u003eTotensonntag\u003c\/i\u003e (Sunday of the Dead) in an almost consistently calm and peaceful character, ending reconciliatively in F major.
