    . the sound for the prologue is electronic and builds in intensity - creates tension and enhances the lonely atmosphere created by the female dancer being alone
    . wind sounds heard in the beginning and kneeling enhance the setting of a vast open landscape

  • aural setting (pt2)
    . building the music in flow 1 is reflected by the increase in speed and energy of the movement leading to the climax when the dancers both look at each other for the first time
    . slow rising piano notes in kneeling create a calm mood and reflect the increasing intimacy of the relationship with this being the first time the dancers look at each other
    . a change of music for each section structures the dance and emphasises the relationship development
