Coda - regressive period 1

Although there are a few additions in this period, the main tendency is toward note-diminution building down from the main motif. The rhythm is augmented from 32nds in bar 169a to 16ths in bar 170f. After adding the rolls in bar 171d, the rhythm is further enlarged until the residue in bar 182. Dynamics evolve from fortissimo in the last bar of the main motif to pianissimo in bar 178. No accents are added and the phrasing is not altered. The melodic curve evolves from the quite capricious main motif to the static residue in measure 182. There are some note rotations in the material from bar 178 until the end of the period.
