In this essay I will dicuss Frederic Chopin and his contribution to the noturne and the developments he made to the nocturne. I will provide a written analysis of one of Chopin’s later nocturnes opus 48. No.1 in C minor. I will critically analyse the score and comprise a brief discourse of the nocturne.

Petrarchan Sonnet, “How do I Love Thee?,” sets out to define how she loves her husband by introducing and developing her desire to do so in the octave, and in the sestet, by expanding upon and settling that desire with connections to her life’s experiences. To better understand and analyze the sonnet, a brief history of Barrett’s life is necessary. Analyzing the octave is crucial in order to see its development and how it eventually connects with the sestet. The analyzation of the sestet will draw connections

known as the clarion register on the clarinet. The chalumeau register starts on E below middle C and ends on B-flat below middle C. The lowest note on the alto saxophone is an A below middle C. Low Register In the first octave of the alto sax from A below middle C to D-flat one octave above middle C, the fingerings for alto sax and clarinet do not match up at all. You will need to learn a completely new set of fingerings for this register if you would like to learn to play the clarinet and alto saxophone

today.   The perception of harmony started to move from Medieval tuning to a more triadic system. Throughout the Medieval period, music was primarily consonant. Based on their mathematical approach to music with Pythagorean ratios, fifths, fourths or octaves were the only consonant intervals. Thus, music was to move in ways that would only give these intervals. This was experimented with throughout the 14th Century with late Medieval polyphony. While some cadences did exist in the Medieval period, they

Harry Partch was born in 1901 and turned out to be a man who did not accept the rules that were set forth around him. This dislike for conventionalities traces back to him being born to adamant Christian parents who were missionaries in China.

the basic melody as well, with changes in format and differences in rhythm. Garland’s melody begins with a cheerful jump in octave on the first lyric of the song, just as Kamakawiwo’oles does for the first two notes. Unlike Garland’s version were each stanza returns to the base or tonic note of the octave, Kamakawiwo’ole ends the stanza climbing to the highest note of the octave introduced in the beginning. In Tatum’s version the main melody is often lost under the many harmonies and embellishments

passages definitely bring in a certain kind of agitation which is amplified by the sudden dynamic changes (f-p). The descending scale at the end of bar 3 had been used previously in Variation II.

A normal Italian sonnet has the rhyme scheme of an octave rhyming abbaabba followed by a sestet rhyming cdecde or cdcdcd. An English sonnet normally rhymes abab cdcd efef gg with three quatrains and a couplet. McGinley’s sonnet rhymes abab cdcd efgefg. It seems to begin with two quatrains as an English sonnet does, but the content of those eight lines form a cohesive octave. “View From A Suburban Window” then goes on as if to form a third octave rhyming efef, but instead it forms a sestet with a

The Impact of Pianos on America Did you know that the first precedent of the piano was created in 500 BCE? The invention of the piano was a revolutionary step in the music world. Not only did it impact music, but the piano also made an impact on America’s culture as we know it. Beginning around the 1700s, the piano began paving its path, being invented to extend the range and pitch that any instrument previously could not achieve. With such a range, musicians began to rise in America to be famous

A sonnet is a poem which contains 14 lines. Usually, sonnets are about love. The Italian sonnet, or the Petrarchan sonnet, has an abba-abba, cde-cde rhyme scheme, with an octave and a sestet. The octave either asks a question or tells the reader a problem, while the sestet indicates a solution or comment. Additionally, traditional sonnets are written in an iambic pentameter rhythm.

mocking the Italian's attitudes and conventions when writing about love, which was always the subject of the Italian sonnets. For example, the Italian divided the 14 line poem into an octave and a sestet, the octave presented a problem or situation or expressed a desire and the sestet addressed what was presented in the octave.

The meaning of this text is death; it comes and it goes. Death is inevitable, and you can not prevent it. This text explains passing memories before going into darkness. “We passed the school, we passed the fields, and we passed the setting sun,” these words represent the tension, instability, and motion. The last part of the poem explains relaxation, stability, and rest; “the dews drew quivering and chill” these words express the calmness of death. The two greatest challenges for me in trying to

The oil painting “Temptation of Saint Hilarion” by Octave Tassaert was painted in 1857. When examining this art for the first time, the viewer is thrown into a world of color and emotion. As our eyes grow accustomed to the image, we start to understand the message behind the madness. In the next few paragraphs, we will analyze Tassaert work by looking in depth at the form, technique of the subject matter and the historical elements behind them. To begin, the art piece, “Temptation of Saint Hilarion”

The poem “London, 1802” written by William Wordsworth has a mournful tone. The poem in constructed with an octave and a sestet throughout which Wordsworth expresses the death of John Milton, and how England still needs him. In the first few lines he says, “Milton! Thou shouldst be living at this hour: / England hath need of thee” (Wordsworth 1-2). The way in which Wordsworth calls out Milton’s name with emphasis shows how strongly Wordsworth grieves for John Milton. He claims England has lost many

The podcast opens to a group of women who appear to be a choir of sorts. They are dressed nicely as if in performance, not a practice session. One of the women is dressed differently with head-garb. The distinctly dressed woman on the left with the head-garb begins to sing a solo. The voice is loud. The voice is singing with a nonmetirical melody. It is very hard to understand what the voice is singing. Even with subtitles, I cannot make out any words. Maybe it is a different language. It is labeled
