Music underwent a plethora of changes throughout the twentieth century, including a complete transformation from the large symphonic works of the late 1800s to the short, electronic ditties of the late 1900s. With all that change, choosing only three composers to represent the entire twentieth century would be impossible. For example, the innovation of electronic music added an entirely new genre to the world of classical music; however, the three composers discussed here did not write in that style

Discuss the impact of Beethoven on the development of the symphony until Mahler. Difficult as it may be to define the true relationship of an artist to his successors, this difficulty is enormously increased when the subject is as complex a man and musician as Beethoven.

He invented the first telephone. Alexander Graham Bell worked with deaf kids seeking to invent a machine that would transmit sound waves by electricity. So, he established a school for the deaf. He also invented the wheat busker, the harmonic telegraph, the metal detector, and the hydrofoil boat. Since the phone is one of the most used devices in times today he clearly impacted us. Alexander may have not created the IPhone but he had the idea of phones and how they would work. His invention

Complexity of melodic and harmonic phrases consumed my mind, soul, and body when I heard an orchestral quartet that performed at my elementary school. Albeit the name of the group escapes my mind, the sound of one particular instrument did not. I remember thinking to myself that I wanted to play the violin.

This has not been achieved in When You Believe, where the chords are broken into 3 quavers (evident in bars 2-5), producing a smoother and more subdued mood. The slow harmonic rhythm created by the Db sustained pedal portrays a sense of endurance and reliability, both linking to the physiognomies of the characters in the movie and the
