Midnight Carousel is in the deep rich key of D minor to aid to the "After Dark" mood and mystery" The piece has two distinct ideas.
After the introduction a Circus- type Waltz begins, when this is repeated it has a very haunting counter melody which is both lilting and lyrical. As the piece develops, an out of character playful Scherzo theme begins which adds some intensity and mystery surrounding the Midnight Carousel. Both Waltz and Scherzo themes exchange dialogue throughout this section as if wanting some sort of control, when suddenly two accents appear to signify a "halt" We then return to the opening theme once more to lead us to a finish.
Before the conclusion however, the Scherzo theme re-instates it's ideas before the final bars!
