  7. Form “…the organization of musical ideas in time.” (Kamien) Form builders: unityrepetition of musical ideas “musical glue” contrast new musical ideas creates forward motion, suspense variation restated musical idea with some change(s)

  8. Form Some example forms found in music: Time: 00:00 xx:yy piece 1:A B A piece 2: A A B B piece 3: A B A C A B A piece 4: A A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 A6 (A A’ A” A”’ etc.) How many sections in each piece? How many musical ideas in each piece? Does a piece’s form give any information about its length? Does each form balance new ideas and repeated ideas? What label from the previous slide would you apply to form #4? How does form #4 create and balance unity and contrast?

  14. Style …is what’s fashionable in terms of: melody rhythm tone color dynamics harmony texture form Listeners’ tastes determine the nature of each of these elements, and those tastes change throughout the course of history. For example, the 16th century was the “golden age of polyphony,” but homophony was favored in the early 17th century. 17th century music was based on long, complex melodies; 18th century listeners preferred simple, short, folk-like melodies.
