when listening to this in college, the climax would make me think of this poem:
4/9/2025 [4:50] public
The most intense climax I've ever heard in a piece of orchestral music. The horns, the strings, the drums, 5 minutes of build up before this... it's incredible.
When I would listen to this song in college sometimes I'd stop listening after this part, and I still think it's somewhat strange to have such an astounding climax so soon in a 20 minute song. But I guess this was meant to score a play, so maybe it corresponds to something that happens in the play.

hearing the entire orchestra come in after the solo guitar part at 8:49 is genuinely one of the most intense climaxes i've heard in a classical piece. spiritual experience.
rivals the climax in 
Hamlet Fantasy Overture, Op. 67, TH 53. the climax of this song is much more hopeful and triumphant - the one in hamlet fantasy sounds like the end of the world
