in „A Modern Approach to Film Music: Hanns Eisler Rejects the Clichés“ (1944):
The breathtaking formations of ice and snow seen at the start and close of the [...] sequence where filmed from aboard ship, whereas those of the middle section where taken from nearby vantage points. To the imaginative Eisler this suggested a tri-partite musical form, specifically a scherzo and trio which would convey the mood of hurrying and searching, as well as the curiosity of those voyaging into the unknown.
