Document Summary
Vpmb82 music in the modern & contemporary eras lecture 2. Imitation of sound, such as bird sound & wind. Does not represent heroic character as military instruments will, such as trumpet, drum, brass. Sancho panza: bass clarinet & tuba duet in f major. Feel ashamed & embarrassed, contrast to previous theme. Sancho panza: laugh at don quixote at the background. Member of nazi, but wrote music on the topic of piece. Female character dances herself to death, notion of mad ecstasy. The mighty handful: borodin, balakirev, cui, mussorgsky, rimsky-korsakov. Mystic chord: stack of triton, interval of fourth. Became interested in theosophy: all religions have a portion of the truth. Should not classify it as tone or symphonic poem because there is no orchestra. More notes in chordal harmony in later measures. Functional harmony is not going to a direction. Music borrows from literature & art movement, ex. impressionism, minimalism.
