Based on the circular, webbed hoop thought to have originated with the Onedia Indians of the northern woodlands, "Dreamcatcher" is shaped into four large sections, delineated by tempo.  The third section is a variation of the pitch material of the first section, and the fourth section is an expansion of the principal ideas of the second section.  The piece closed with a brief coda recalling the opening moments.
