Throughout the years of piano and cello practice‚ I never truly appreciated the musical style of the Romantic period. The dissonance created by contrasting melodies and key changes starkly contrasted the lyrical and cheerful melodies of the Baroque and Classical period.

This semester‚ Exploring Music caused me to explore new methods of musical thought

‘The poems ‘Remember’‚ ‘Piano’ and ‘Poem at Thirty-nine’ all explore melancholy emotions.’ How far do you agree with this statement? ‘Poem at Thirty-nine’ and ‘Piano’ explore melancholy emotions while ‘Remember’ does not in my opinion. The reasons I do no completely agree is because the three poems all have hidden feelings and meanings. ‘Poem at Thirty-nine’ shows melancholy emotions because it presents the loss of the persona’s father and ‘Piano’ portrays how D.H.

On October 24th at 7:30 in Williams gym‚ Gregory Tompkins and Ellen Brewer performed several piano and violin pieces. I really enjoyed the dynamic aspects of each piece. They all told an individual story that resonated with the audience even after its conclusion. As I listened to the performance‚ I was reminded of various different historical contexts.

Major work of the composer’s early style. It is also a landmark piece of XX.th century piano music. Premiered in 1950 by Yvette Grimaux this Sonata is stupefying by the accomplishment of a young composer aged 23. Even though molded in the classical Sonata model it also displays an amazing novelty in its discourse. Showcasing a high rhythmical complexity‚ probably inspired by Messiaen’s researches it also distinguishes itself by its departure from the Schoenberg concept of the tone-series. Sonic

Analysis of “Allemande” from J.S. Bach’s English Suite No. 3 in G minor. I have analysed Bach’s allemande from the English suite no. 3 using the Schenkerian method‚ by reducing the score down to its basic foundations‚ in order to show how the work can be understood on the foreground‚ middle ground and background levels. In order to this‚ I have taken away unnecessary notes‚ such as the neighbour and passing notes‚ to leave the score as a basic four part chorale-like piece with two chords to

It wasn’t until 1799 when it was first published that Constanze revealed the truth that Mozart did not finish it and that it was not written or completed by
