In The Cross Of Christ I Glory
An unaccompanied string trio for violin, viola, and cello. The introduction is plaintive where it leads into the tune presented by the violin in double stops. The consequent phrase gives the tune to the viola. A modulation takes place and the melody is once again placed in the hands of the violin. This time the consequent phrase is a quasi duet in the viola and cello. The last section begins with imitative entrances of each of the instruments until it solidifies into a solemn end.
