- in the middle of m. 147; this is the moment where the music of the recapitulation stops corresponding to the exposition (Ex. 15.2, m. 62)
- m. 153
- the deceptive cadence at m. 151
- closing section
- We could see the “beginning” of a complete coda theme as early as the upbeat flourishes to m. 144. The resulting theme would be sentential: a false closing section (mm. 144–47) becoming presentation; continuation leading to a deceptive cadence at m. 151, with repeat of the continuation.
- The last part of the closing section of the coda fashions a new forte dynamic, which ends the entire more emphatically than the piano dynamic that ended the exposition (see Ex. 15.2, mm. 162–65).
