Pirates of the Caribbean VS. Elein Kleine Nachtmusik The Pirates of the Caribbean theme song was written by Hans Zimmer and is widely known by most people‚ similarly to Mozart’s Elein kleine Nachtmusik. Pirates of the Caribbean is a very well-produced movie‚ therefore it has a very complex theme song. Even though Mozart has many instruments and different variety of music characteristics‚ he is able to balance different characteristics. Their characteristics range from their meter‚ melody‚ rhythm

Chapter 17: 1. Describe the solo concerto or "concerto" as it is now referred to in the Classical Period (5 pts).

Hector Berlioz‚ son of Louis Berlioz and Marie Antoinette‚ born in France at the La Cote- Saint- Andre in December 1803‚ lived a great life to be a well-known French Romantic Composer. Hector did not start studying music till age 12 and with the lack of support of his parents never learned to play the piano. His lack of knowledge of ability to play the piano was both beneficial and detrimental to his works later in life as a composer. As he grew older‚ his parents pushed him towards studies in the

The Trout Song is among Franz Schubert’s over 600 songs and one that is a listeners’ favorite. It was one of his earliest compositions when he was just twenty-one years old. The Trout Song‚ mainly referred to as Die Forelle‚ in German‚ was composed way back around the year 1817 but it mostly echoed words from a poem written by another German Christian Schubart. The lyrics of Schubart’s poem as repeated in the Trout Song‚ are about a bystander who is watching a trout dart around in a small stream

On 1st September‚ 1725‚ I attended a performance of “The Four Seasons”‚ a concerto by the Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi at the Pieta. The composer‚ often known locally as the “Red priest” (Heller‚ 1997) for his ostensibly red hair and ordainment‚ wrote the piece in 1723 in Mantua; Italy’s music sure seems to be increasing in its grandeur. However‚ I would doubt the sincerity of Vivaldi’s concertos; ever since Corelli these instrumental pieces are pumped out massively for the aristocracy (Michalik

The idea of an overture started in the 17th century or the Baroque era. An overture is defined as an instrumental introduction and usually played before a larger work such as an opera‚ play‚ ballet‚ etc to set the mood for what is coming up in the rest of the performance. Concert overtures started to appear in the early 19th century or the Romantic era. These overtures were inspired by a play or story‚ but they did not necessarily lead up to a larger work. Instead‚ they were independent‚ individual

Evaluation In the overall analysis of the three pieces in terms of piano‚ guitar and orchestra versions‚ I have found that the three songs in various versions are different in some extent. That is to say‚ each piece has its distinguished feature with reference to sound‚ time‚ structure‚ melody‚ tempo‚ and harmony. To be more specific‚ the report will examine each song within its different versions only. Before I start analyzing the pieces‚ I would like to give a brief introduction about

One of Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina’s most famous pieces from the Renaissance was Sicut Cervus‚ a motet that bases itself off the first two phrases from Psalm 42 (41). The piece was scored for four voices‚ presumably for a soprano‚ alto‚ base‚ and tenor‚ and all four voices seemed to act almost independent of each other. Obviously the existence of various voices means the piece has a polyphonic texture‚ but interestingly it is actually imitative polyphony‚ meaning that all voices have are reading
