Similar to life, Terra Beata, arranged by Vanessa Fanning, carries the listener through a series of pleasant and more intense experiences, ending victoriously. Written in the key of C, the melody begins calmly played by the first violins, accompanied by a flowing rhythmic pattern. Later, the violas offer the theme with a slightly more aggressive accompaniment. After moments of peace and tranquility, the pace of life steadily picks up. A fugue-like intensity propels the upper ensemble. The cello and bass sections enter, offering a sense of stability, resolve, and determination, unifying all voices. The ensemble then plays in unison and strength, with hints of previous themes. Terra Beata concludes with bold chordal structures to portray a resolute affirmation that, despite the turmoil and trials of life, this is "a beautiful world."
