I must listen to it again. Perhaps there was this part in the middle of the first movement where, was it going backwards or forwards or the layering. That first movement is so rigorous, and the second a fugue, do I recall reading that. I have never understood fugues, they are pretty far out and interesting. The counterpoint at the end of some classical symphonies (esp 40 Mozart) is easier, and makes me think of taking a building apart. I have Richter doing the Well Tempered Clavier and listen often. He amused me by saying that after playing for Stalin's funeral he really needed a shower.
