I spent some time with the tempi. I slowed down the parts that call for “un poco riten.”, which means to suddenly hold back the tempo. I changed the tempo for those indications to a quarter note = 55, and sped up the rest of the piece to q=70. There are lots of gradual tempo decreases, where he calls for “poco rallentando”, slowing down. I saved the really slow parts for the “riten.” and “smorz.”, which roughly translate to suddenly slowing down and dying away.
