Concert Review The first song I heard is Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture‚ composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. It is written at 1880‚ a romantic period music. It is a sonata allegro form‚ which consist an exposition‚ a development‚ and a recapitulation. However‚ it is hard for me to find connection between three parts when I was at the concert.
