Music
Part 1 resembles Part 1 of Havergal Brian's Symphony No. 1 "The Gothic". It is entirely orchestral. 2nd orchestra is tacet until movement 2, and 3rd orchestra is tacet until movement 3.

Part 2 resembles Part 2 of Havergal Brian's Symphony No. 1 "The Gothic". It brings in the full forces. The onstage and offstage instruments are tacet in movement 4. It uses the Te Deum text sung by the choirs. This is now described as symphonic rock. Everyone should be tacet except for the choirs in movement 5 until 4 Bb clarinets do a fanfare. In movement 6, everyone is struggling to reach a conclusion. All the choruses yell "NON CONFUNDAR..." very loudly (ff (112)). And then they yell again "NON CONFUNDAR IN AETERNUM!!!" as loud as possible (fff (126)), with the sound increasing to ffff. This is indicated as *molto cresc. <* Everyone does an orchestral coda, but it is not over yet. The choirs whisper softly "Non confundar in aeternum." in the dynamic of pp. The music is not over yet.

Part 3 resembles Final Scene from Goethe's Faust from Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 8. Guiitars, bass, and drums should tacet in Part 3. All of the instruments wake up at the end. ffff is to be for the conclusion to Part 3. Then everyone does a crescendo to fffff. Strings and piccolo should tacet in the last 4 bars, while everyone else does a molto crescendo to ffffff.

Trivia

 * This is the 11th movement of Symphony No. 3 "iOS 6".
 * This movement will be performed in the fall of 2014.
 * The genre is classical in Part 1 and 3, and symphonic rock in Part 2.
