Editor's Notes
- #2 he Age of Reason, also known as the Enlightenment, was a time when people began to value reason and logic. They believed in using their minds to understand the world better, rather than just following traditions or beliefs. Classical composers aimed for clarity and beauty in their music. They used specific forms and structures, like sonatas and symphonies, to organize their compositions. Classical music is known for its clear structure and balance. Composers created music that was organized, with specific forms like sonatas, symphonies, and concertos. This emphasis on order and clarity is similar to the ideas of balance and proportion found in classical architecture and art. aristocracy means a group of people from noble families who are wealthy and powerful, often influencing society and culture around them! HOMOPHONIC - Think of a singer with a guitar or piano. The singer is the one main melody, and the guitar or piano plays chords underneath to support the song. This is homophonic texture!
- #4 Musical Story: You can think of a sonata like a musical story. It has different parts that come together to make a complete piece of music. Each part has its own mood and feeling, just like chapters in a book The minuet is a graceful and elegant dance that is usually done in a slow to moderate tempo. It has a lovely, flowing style, and dancers often move in a gentle, flowing manner. -
- #5 This is where the main themes or melodies are introduced. It’s like the beginning of a story where we meet the characters. Development: In this part, the composer takes the themes and changes them, mixing them up and exploring different sounds. It’s like the middle of the story where things get more exciting and interesting. Recapitulation: This is where the main themes come back, like returning to the characters after the adventure. It ties everything together and brings the story to a close
- #6 Fast: The first movement is usually lively and exciting. Slow: The second movement is more calm and peaceful, allowing the soloist to show off their expressive playing. Fast Again: The final movement is often lively again, bringing the piece to an energetic finish.
- #8 rand opera is known for its large scale and dramatic stories. The music is often powerful, and the performances can include a lot of singers, dancers, and even special effects.Epic Stories: The stories in grand operas are usually serious and might involve themes like love, war, or tragedy. They often have big emotions and can make you feel excited or sad. Comic operas, also known as operettas, are lighter and often funny. They usually have happy endings and include humorous situations or characters.Catchy Music: The music in comic operas is often cheerful and easy to sing along with. They might include lots of lively dances and silly songs.
- #10 He is also known as the "Father of the String Quartet." Haydn was one of the first composers to write music specifically for a group of four string instruments (two violins, a viola, and a cello), creating a new genre that became very popular. He was a choir boy in the St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna, where he received some formal music training. However, when he reached adolescence, he was no longer able to sing in the choir and had to find other ways to support himself. Struggles and Hard Work: After leaving the choir, Haydn faced many challenges as he worked as a freelance musician and composer. He struggled to find steady work and often lived in difficult conditions. However, he kept working hard to improve his skills and build his reputation.
- #11 He began playing the keyboard when he was just three years old and started composing music by the age of five. His father, Leopold Mozart, recognized his talent and encouraged him to develop his skills.
- #12 eethoven started experiencing hearing problems in his late 20s. At first, it was mild, but over the years, his condition worsened, and he became increasingly isolated from the world around him. Coping with Deafness: Despite his hearing loss, Beethoven continued to compose music. He developed various strategies to help him write and conduct music, such as using a special rod to feel vibrations from the piano and relying on his memory of sounds and music theory.
- #13 Their compositions are now commonly used as music to animated series of popular cartoon companies such as Looney Toons, Warner Brothers, 20th Century Fox, Pixar, etc.
- #17 To generalize all the lesson, just remember that Music of the Classical Era is usually associated with the nobility. During that time most of the members of the nobility would financially support the musicians. Music was played in the courts which make the music of the classical era more familiar to the nobility than the lower classes. This association of the rich and Classical music is still being experienced in some parts of the world. However, with the dawn of radio and TV, classical music may now be experienced by the masses.
