First published: unknown. Completeness: unknown.Through Forest and Field is an animated miniature built around quick triplet gestures and a contrasting, more sustained central episode. The changing textures suggest movement through different musical landscapes. The opening measures exchange triplet figures between the lower and upper parts. Longer upper notes and brief rests interrupt the running motion, producing a mixture of quick impulses and suspended answers. The central section changes from A minor to A major. Sustained, chordal writing replaces much of the earlier bustle, and the melody unfolds in a warmer, more connected texture. The closing section restores the minor-key triplet material. Running gestures and short chordal punctuations bring back the opening’s restless character before the final cadence. Interesting fact: The central change is between parallel keys—A minor and A major—so the tonal center stays the same while the harmony’s color changes.
