No. 22 "Anniversary" - Quite Slowly, E-flat minor - E-flat major

The slow dotted rhythm in duple meter suggests a funeral march. Perhaps it should rather be called a "Day of Mourning." In character, it forms a pair with the lively No. 23, but here the order has been reversed to consider the overall flow. It can also be seen as an echo of the Marche funèbre, Op. 26 (1846), published the previous year.
