to add to the turmoil of the piece. Music is vivace, a very fast tempo, with sweeping flourishes and tremolos in the accompaniment. The strings play the tremolos aggressively, and the full orchestra (winds and brass) is used for loud, punctuating chords. The vocal line is sharp and has very precise rhythms. The instrumentation differs slightly from Queen of the Night Aria 1, as it includes a trumpet and timpani. The oboe, flute, bassoon, horn, and string section all remain the same. The strings accompany

When one thinks of impressionistic composers, it is only natural for Claude Debussy to be part of the subject. However, it is rare that impressionism and classical form are mentioned within the same breath. For that reason, it is necessary to remind oneself that the free-flowing music of the contemporary only exists by standing on the shoulders of the rigidly methodical music that came before it.

These two components are interwoven to build elaborate themes which lead to a melodic design that Chopin is known for. The piece has multiple key elements that combine to form this expressive work for piano, such as thematic growth.

Second Section (B): Bar 27 – 50 Third Section (A) + Coda: Bars 51 – 72 First Section Analysis: Clair de Lune is in D flat major and begins with a tonic chord, excluding the tonic note. It is introduced later on, where the median of the chord (F natural) is doubled. The right hand playing chord I is supported by the left hand for the first four opening bars. This creates a chord-a-bar harmonic rhythm. During these opening bars, the left hand slowly starts to descend while the diatonic theme is played

cantus firmus. The pitches often create consonance, quickly deviate away to form a new tonality, only to find themselves returning to thirds and sixths. The entrance of the caput cantus firmus outlines a major triad exactly as it is in the anonymous mass; however, the chord is reminiscent to C Major as the cantus firmus sings an E . Both composers use the beginning pitch of their cantus firmi as the third of the triads much before the true age of tonality. This could be a considerable instance of the
