Symphony

THE NEW YORK UNIVERSITY SYMPHONY On May 6th 2016 at 8pm the New York University held a program in the Frederick Loewe of Theatre on campus. The orchestra was made entirely of students from the university and they performed pieces such as Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No.7 in A Major, Op.92, Claude Debussy’s Danses sacrée et profane and Paul Hindemith’s Symphony: Mathis der Maler (Matthias the Painter) with Adam Glaser as conductor. The performance of Debussy’s symphony was particularly moving

The last piece Prokofiev’s symphony no.5 contained the strongest and certainly the most effectively and expressively played music of that evening.

A Night at the Symphony “Real music is always, revolutionary, for it cements the ranks of the people; it arouses them and leads them onward,” claimed Dmitri Shostakovitch. Composers create music to influence but also to entertain people. On November 4, 2017, I attended the Midland-Odessa Symphony & Chorale concert at Wagner Noël Performing Arts Center, which was conducted by Gary Lewis. During the performance, the orchestra performed works by several composers: Giuseppe Verdi’s Overture to La forza

A Comparison of Haydn's Symphony No. 95 with Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 Introduction As noted by Robert Hughes, "Beethoven was not only the embodiment of all that was before him, but also of that which was yet to come" (Hughes 486). The truth of this may be seen by comparing Beethoven's 5th Symphony in C Minor to Haydn, the father of Symphony, and his 95th in C Minor. While Haydn's symphony is both playful and dramatic, Beethoven's symphony is grander both in terms of scale and vision. He expands

van Beethoven. His nine symphonies are a perfect example of such a metamorphosis of musical genius. Not only his compositional strides, but the manner in which he made them is extremely important to the shape of our musical culture. Throughout the development of his works, Beethoven kept one foot in the past while reaching and cultivating the artistic future of the symphonic form, thus shaping a societal view of the art form as a whole. The maturation of his nine symphonies can best be categorized

46-year-old Gustav Mahler was struck with inspiration unlike any he had ever had in his life. With this inspiration, he composed his Eighth Symphony in less than two months. Dedicated to “My dear wife, Alma Maria” and known as Mahler’s “search for redemption”, this symphony was the first of Mahler’s works to be an overwhelming success. Mahler’s Eighth Symphony connected two choral pieces, Veni, Creator Spiritus (early 9th century) and Goethe’s Faust, Part II (1830-1831). These two works were written

A symphony is an extended classical composition for an orchestra, found in Western Art Music. It often consists of four separate and unique, sections known as movements which are, in some way however, related to one another. The symphony as a genre began developing during the late 17th century and continued to do so up until the late 18th century. This important genre of Western Art Music is closely related to the development of the orchestra. It is therefore critical, in understanding the symphony

Beethoven’s Sixth Symphony “He (Beethoven) was a pivotal figure in the transition from 18th century musical classicism to 19th century romanticism, and his influence on subsequent generations of composers was profound” Kerman and Tyson. Beethoven’s sixth symphony (also known as the pastoral symphony) has qualities of both the classical and romantic periods and illustrates Beethoven’s revolutionary ideas as well as highlights his classical influences. The programmatic nature of the piece is the dominant

Beethoven’s symphony No. 5 in C minor has four movements. The first movement is “Allegro con brio”. In the first movement, Beethoven uses sonata form and duple meter to express “fate knocking at the door.” When this part Played by the string’s instruments, it gives me a serious threatening and nervous feeling. In the second theme, Beethoven used Solo French horns to present quiet and peaceful fate, but this atmosphere did not last long. Low strings and descending line are bringing tough, dark and

importance The stage set-up was based on what instrument each musician played. There were woodwind, brass, percussion, violin instrumental groups on the stage.

The middle back of the stage was the clarinet, bassoons, flutes, and oboes. In the middle of the stage was the

Symphony Number 45 in F# Minor (the "Farewell symphony") Between 1761 and 1790 Haydn was employed by the enormously wealthy Esterhazy family who had two palaces on the borders of Austria and Hungary. The court orchestra was similar to that of many baroque orchestras - two oboes, a bassoon, a string ensemble and a harpsichord. But it also included a pair of horns - instruments that became a regular part of the orchestra thereafter. --------------------------------------------------------------------

is most famous for his nine symphonies, which have even been called the cornerstones of Western civilization. The most famous two are the Fifth Symphony and the Ninth Symphony because of their grandeur. (iml.jou.ufl.edu) Additionally, according to the American Bach website, Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony has always been a masterwork that simultaneously creates a chasm through the nature of its wide range of summative styles and form and bridges its own gap. The Ninth Symphony is often described as a work

I choose “Symphony No. 9 in D Minor, Op. 125, "Choral": IV. Ode to Joy” composed Beethoven. I have no specific reason why I picked this song, besides the fact that I admired Beethoven when I was young. When I listened to the piece the first time I was surprised by its dynamics. In my head I have this preconceived idea that classical music was soft. I did a little research on the classical era and discovered; that music was an important part of society at the time and Beethoven was one of the top

On November 29, 2017, during a Wednesday night, I attended a Symphony Orchestra. The performance was played by the University of Houston Symphony Orchestra in Moores Opera House at the Moores School of Music. The performance was conducted by two different conductors. The first conductor was Carlos Guillermo Jung, he conducted the first piece which was a piece by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky called Fantasy which is a Romeo and Juliet Overture. The next conductor was Franz Anton Krager, he conducted the

The Symphony No. 5 in C minor by Ludwig van Beethoven was written roughly between the years 1804 to 1808. This is most likely the best-known work in the classical music genre. Additionally it was written during the Classical period. It was initially performed in Vienna’s Theater an der Wien in 1808. The first movement: Allegro con brio, kicks it off with the famous four-note motif and once it begins it instantly creates the feeling of suspense and it immediately grabs my attention. Throughout this
