High school presentation/Forms of Music rocio_mejia
Musical form and structure refers to how music is organized into sections. All music has an overall plan or structure. Common musical forms include strophic form with repeating sections (AAA), binary form with two contrasting sections (AB), ternary form with three sections in a pattern of contrast and return (ABA), and rondo form with a recurring theme interrupted by different sections (ABACADA). Understanding musical form helps analyze how musical materials, ideas, and sections are constructed.

This style influenced hymns and part-songs and can be traced through Bach's chorales to influence harmony in classical and later music such as Christmas carols and popular music genres.
