“A folk melody from the Morava river valley, ancient und profound as if sung by the earth itself, encouraged me to take it as the theme of Passacaglia, and develope it into 34 variations for symphonic orchestra […] Variations represent striving for the unity of the diverse, […] the theme itself consisting of no more than three notes (while only touching the fourth), transcending everything else, while reaching out of the obscure depths of time.” (L. Maric)
