A trumpet solo plays over the mingled adult and children's chorus in this work's middle section. The chorus in this piece uses counterpoint between different sections to contribute to the overall soundscape, which oscillates throughout this piece. The words "I want to dig him out" are repeated near the end of this piece, which has a fortissimo trumpet section in the middle which quotes from Charles Ives' The Unanswered Question.
