agree  Rachel Douglas: With "retrograde". I believe that "retrograde statement" or "retrograde restatement" can be used. It's perhaps better than "exposition", since it's talking about a second half. "The music in the second half is a retrograde (re)statement of the first."

neutral  Jim Tucker (X): definitely not inversion! (There is such a thing, but it is not mentioned specifically here. This is retrograde without inversion.)That's a vertical mirror image, not a horizontal one. Just a retrograde restatement of the first. Probably not motion either
