Solution
1. How did composers vary the standard structure of the symphony?
ans)
The Classical masters established the orchestra as we know it today: as an ensemble of the four instrumental families.
The heart of the orchestra was the string family.
Woodwinds provided varying colors and assisted the strings, often doubling them.
The brass sustained the harmonies and contributed body to the sound mass, while the timpani supplied rhythmic life and vitality.
2. How is the virtuostic ability of the performer displayed in the Classical concerto?
ans)
The Classical concerto form has three movements, alternating fast-slow-fast.
The first movement is the longest and most complex, combining elements of Baroque ritornello procedure and sonata-allegro form , resulting in first-movement concerto form .
3. What is unusual about the form of Beethoven\'s \"Moonlight\" Sonata?
ans)
When Beethoven composed the sonata in 1801 (at the end of his first style period), he was already enamored of his young pupil, Countess Giuletta Guicciardi.
The sonata is dedicated to her, but since this dedication seems to have been a last-minute decision, the work is probably not a programmatic statement of his love.
This sonata, one of a set from Op. 27, breaks the formal molds
