His music put the mind at ease and allows ones memory to be receptive to what is being read. One can hear the piano, violins, harp and the oboe. Mozart music is easy on the ear and beautiful. I enjoy listening to the Best of Mozart, because it is not to dramatic and the tone is so intense. His music flows easily and one could glide across the room so smoothly.
Describe the ways in which Beethoven makes use of form and tonality in the first movement The first movement of Beethoven’s First Symphony is in sonata form. This means that the movement is divided into four sections, the first subject, the bridge, the second subject and the codetta. The movement starts off in the tonic key of C major. It remains in this key for a few bars until in changes to D minor in bar nineteen. The first subject starts at bar thirteen and ends at bar thirty-three on a perfect cadence in C major.
Beethoven didn’t have a real patron, but his music was paid for by the nobility of Vienna. After he began to grow deaf, but he still continued to compose, conduct and perform even
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. The piece continued with separate individual solos from each instrument. This added to the tone of the piece, and drew the audience in emotionally. With the exception of the decrescendo at the end, the piece maintained an even sound level throughout. Overall, the elements found within the tempo, tone, and melody made this piece my favorite.
These sections are the exposition, which starts from the first bar in K.333, the development, which between bars 63 and 93 and the recapitulation that occurs from bar 93 until the end of the piece. Poulenc’s Sonata is written in ternary form, which means that it follows an A-B-A structure. In this specific piece, the A section starts at bar 1, the B section starts at bar 26, then at bar 58 the A section returns again. In Mozart’s K.333 there are clear perfect cadences used in the piece that help reinforce the tonality, however in Poulenc’s Sonata although there are perfect cadences some of them are not completed and are instead suggested and then interrupted. In Mozart’s K.333 the cadences are used to reinforce the tonality, such as in bars 9-10 where the cadence is in the tonic key.

He started his career when he was hired by the Esterhazy family, giving him the chance to write and compose symphonies and conduct orchestras.

Argosy University Online M1_A3_The Mozart Effect Cognitive Psychology PSY363 A01 Professor: Kimberly Wilkins Student: Chantel Perez September 3, 2015 Abstract The Mozart Effect is an occurrence that takes place when individuals listen to the two piano sonata. The results are that individuals can recollect information better. There are two studies that were conducted in association with the Mozart Effect.
