In this paper‚ I will discuss the kind of imagination stimulated by the classical piece‚ Concerto for Orchestra‚ by Bela Bartok. In my imagination‚ the aural‚ mental and intellectual stimulation attributable to this piece of classical music relates to the differences between countryside experiences and life that those living in cities and towns go through.

Before concerto grosso took form‚ it had a series of predecessors that morphed over time to finally become what we recognise today as concerto grosso.

Trio sonata evolved into solo sonatas where a solo instrument such as violin‚ flute‚ oboe or cello

I would like to point out how symphony works by Bela Bartok get compared with music preceding Bartok. I will mainly focus on the development from the 18th century to the Bartok period. For the comparison‚ here I introduce Beethoven Symphony No.3 for the 18th century symphony work and Berlioz Symphony Fantastique for the 19th century symphony work. Beethoven Symphony No.3 “Eroica” is a masterpiece of the late 19th century. It shows many features of classical periods as well as showing numerous characteristics

Bartók and Folk Music Béla Bartók (1881-1945)‚ one of the best-known Hungarian composers is also one of the most significant musicians of the twentieth century. He shared a strong passion for ethnomusicology‚ which is the scientific study of music‚ especially traditional music‚ as an aspect of culture. Bartok synthesized the Hungarian pattern of music and other folk music that he studied to make his own distinctive style. As composers continued to seek originality in the twentieth century‚ many

I will do this by outlining the form of the classical concerto and looking at the changes between the Classical era and the Romantic era in music. I will then discuss a composer who changed from composing in the classical style to composing in the Romantic period (Romanticism) and why they changed to it. The composer I will look at is Ludwig van

the history of music. His Violin Concerto in D Major has been played by nearly every soloist in the past 150 years and‚ today‚ it is one of the major works in violin repertoire.

This style has been influenced by classical and baroque concerto forms‚ with it’s slow introduction and elements of the baroque ’concerto for orchestra’ and ’concerto grosso’ (although this cannot be clearly seen in this movement). Much of the work is based on a scalic idea Bartok called his ’germinal motif.’ It is based on an Arabic scale‚ and is found in much eastern

Commentary – Piano and Drums by Gabriel Okara In Gabriel Okara’s poem‚ “Piano and Drums”‚ Okara expresses his feelings and thoughts of a primitive society in contrast to a western society. Being an African himself‚ and having studied in a western society‚ the poem reflects the confusion in his emotions as well as the loss of self-identity. The title of the poem itself‚ “Piano and Drums” displays a sense of dissimilarity and contrast as the instruments are so unalike in terms of sophistication.

Several of Vivaldi’s movements consisted of more than one soloist supported by an orchestra. However‚ the piece I am going to discuss only consists of a single soloist and his or her accompaniment. Vivaldi composed a series containing four separate parts‚ but I am only relating to the second one. I am covering Summer from The Four Seasons concerto. Summer
