This feature is repeated throughout the piece. It creates clear structured phrasing, although it could be argued that there are two bar phrases of the same kind (splitting each four bar phrase). Another melodic technique Mozart uses is the fact that many of the phrases are scalic. He mainly sticks to the scale of the tonic note, in this case G minor. There are however accidentals throughout the piece, albeit rare.
Revision sheet Miles Davis All Blues All Blues was improvised using scales and melodies Miles Davis and shown the musicians. Blues can be played in the twelve bar form or using blue notes. Blue Notes Blue notes are note that have to be bent or flatten to make an in-between note. 12 bar Blues The 12 bar blues has three four bar phases. The most common chord structure uses three chords: Chord 1, chord 4 and chord 5.
Fifth Symphony The Fifth Symphony is one of the major symphonies composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Premiered in 1808, it featured the whole orchestra. The first movement is in C minor, four chords are thrust forward in monophonic texture to open the work. The work is built upon a short motive which repeats throughout the piece with slight variation each time, creating a cyclical structure to the entire symphony. The four note motive repeats in the first theme constantly repeated with variation in rhythm, instrumentation, and dynamic level.
In the harmony we have a minor triad on the 6th and 5th degree, also a harmonic device used a lot in gospel music. On the 9th bar Miles plays the major seventh, Cannonball the 4th,Coltrane doubles Miles an octave lower and the rhythm section plays a dominant chord on the 5th. This voicing is then three times transposed and they end up playing on the eleventh bar the same voicing with the flat six on top, which means the rhythm section is playing a dominant chord on the flat seventh, which then resolves back to one after two bars and which is a substitution of a very gospel like chord change, 4 minor to
Some augmented 4th and flattened 5ve appeared. In bar229, 3 bars silence to resolve the climate than followed by many long notes and soft dynamics. Starting from bar 410 is the recapitulation, piccolos and flute bring out the theme. In the second movement, it is about the person going to the ball. The string started with very soft repeating chord.
While each group showed differences in musical style, they all displayed great skill and magnificence in their compositions. My favorite piece in the concert was “God Bless the Child” by Billie Holiday and Arthur Herzog, Jr. This piece was performed by the Strickland Quintet and consisted of a tenor saxophone, piano, guitar, drums, and bass. Unlike the previous fast paced pieces performed by this quintet, this piece started off with a slow, adagio, tempo. From the beginning, the performance caught the listener’s ear, as the saxophone played lead, followed by a soft hormonal background from the other instruments.
I could hear some syncopation coming from the guitar and the song had more of a slow tempo mood. And another thing by Tom Garling used a piano, drum kit, five saxophones, five trumpets, four trombones, string bass and a congo drum. It used an AABA musical form. The song had a medium slow tempo to it and it had a 4/4 meter throughout. In the song there was improvisation from the drums, trumpets and saxophones.
* Mozart is known for his great melodic ideas, his melodies are simple, elegant and songful. * The three works of Op. 10 are in C minor, F major and D major. The first was begun in 1795 and the third completed by July 1798. Published in September, 1798, by Eder in Vienna, the set is dedicated to Countess Anna Margarete von Browne, whose husband, Count Johann von Browne (1767-1827), was one of Beethoven's chief early patrons.
The director, Robert Lucky, played the alto saxophone. There were four performers in this group. Chance Hopkins and Zach Rhea both played the drums and vibraphone. Erik Coleman played the piano and Ed Coussan played the bass. There were also two guest alumni saxophonists by the name of Brett Darby and Ruby Espinosa.
The instruments used in swing were brass (trumpets and trombones), saxophone, and rhythm section containing piano, guitar, bass, and drums. The piano played the melody while the guitar and bass strummed one chord on each beat knows as rhythm guitar style. In “Sittin’ In” by Roy Eldridge and Chu Berry recorded in November 1938 it is compiled of a jazz combo. This piece starts out with the trumpet then is accompanied by piano, guitar and drummer, shortly incorporating the saxophone into the melody. At about the middle of the song, the drummer has a solo part and brings back in the other instruments.
