In John Steinbeck’s novel “Of Mice and Men” Steinbeck expertly uses foreshadowing to prelude many surprising events in the ending. From the very beginning we can predict what will happen to the two main characters: Lennie and George. It is used to hint at future events concerning Lennie’s death.

Musical Analysis The first piece I chose was Frédéric Chopin’s Prelude in E-Minor (op.28 no. 4). It was performed by Aldona Dvarionaite (2009). Chopin was a composer in the Romantic period.
