Classical Music

The Tchaikovsky song featured in the movie "Orphan" is the "Swan Lake" ballet, specifically Act II, Scene 10: Moderato. This piece is a classical ballet composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky in 1875–76. The hauntingly beautiful melody of "Swan Lake" is often associated with the dark and suspenseful themes of the movie.

Ah, the shortest piano piece is "For Bunita Marcus" by Morton Feldman. It's a delicate and intimate composition that lasts for just 4 minutes and 33 seconds. Even though it's short, it's filled with beauty and emotion, like a tiny gem waiting to be discovered.

Oh, dude, when one famous composer hits another famous composer, you get a symphony of drama! It's like a musical showdown, but with more drama and less harmony. So, basically, it's like a classical music version of a rap battle, but with less bling and more powdered wigs.

Oh, dude, that's easy. You call it a "solo piece" or a "solo composition." It's like when your friend decides to go solo in a boy band - they just want all the spotlight to themselves, you know? So yeah, it's basically a piece of music written for one instrument to show off its skills without any distractions.

Ah, what a beautiful moment! The wedding song that played in the TV show Girlfriends when William and Yvonne almost got married was "Here and Now" by Luther Vandross. It really captured the love and emotion of that special moment, didn't it? Just like painting a happy little tree, that song added a lovely touch to their almost-wedding day.

Lento, in music means slow. Its slightly faster then "largo" (if you dont know what that means please click here http://www.audioenglish.net/dictionary/largo.htm) But its played at a staeady beat.

Dvořák's Symphony No. 9 in E minor, "From the New World," appears in the 1977 science fiction film "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," directed by Steven Spielberg. The symphony is featured prominently throughout the film, particularly in the iconic communication sequence with the alien spacecraft. Its powerful and evocative music adds depth and emotion to the film's narrative, enhancing the sense of wonder and mystery surrounding the extraterrestrial encounters.

"A hand kiss" is an English equivalent of the Italian phrase un bacio di mano. The masculine singular word and noun, preposition, and masculine singular noun most famously reference Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's (January 27, 1756 - December 5, 1791) aria for bass voice and piano and translate literally as "a kiss of hand" or "one kiss of hand." The pronunciation will be "oon BA-tcho dee MA-no" in Italian.

Ah, what a lovely question. "He rode with a jewelled twinkle" can be interpreted as someone riding with a sense of grace and elegance, shining brightly like a jewel. It paints a beautiful picture of someone moving through life with a special sparkle in their eyes, bringing joy and light to those around them.

Unitary form in music refers to a structure where a piece of music is organized as a single continuous section without clear breaks or divisions. This form is characterized by a continuous flow of musical ideas and themes without distinct sections like verses or choruses. Unitary form is often found in genres such as classical music, where compositions may be structured as a single movement or a continuous piece without breaks. This form allows for a seamless progression of musical ideas and themes throughout the composition.

In most instances, the performance of Handel's Messiah is done with a full orchestra (stings, woodwinds, brass & percussion), but can also be accompanied by just piano, or just organ, alone.

It all depends on the orchestra and what piece they are playing. You will see the use of many different traditional and non-traditional instruments in the modern orchestra. In the classical orchestra it would be uncommon to see a trombone.

I bet you're thinking of "Love Theme" by Ennio Morricone from the movie Cinema Paradiso...though there have been SEVERAL commercials since that one, but most people are referring to that song. I found this article to be very interesting http://www.theparadisogroup.com/

A suite of music for a solo instrument is typically referred to as a "solo suite" or "suite for solo instrument." This type of composition consists of a series of musical movements or pieces, often following a specific structure or theme. Solo suites are commonly composed for instruments such as the piano, violin, cello, or guitar, showcasing the technical and expressive capabilities of the soloist.

Unlike the dynamics of the early baroque, Classical music dynamics tended to be a little more diverse, yet without the passion of the Romantic era. There was the range, from the pianissimo to the fortissimo but music of the early Classical era lacked the dramatic and sudden changes characteristic of later Classical composers such as Beethoven, who led into the Romantic.

Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 in c minor, Op. 67 was written in 1804-08. This symphony is one of the most popular and well-known compositions in all of European classical music, and one of the most often-played symphonies. It starts with the fifth of c minor.

It depends on what for, book or poster or programme etc, but basically you would do thus - "La bohème, an opera in four acts by Giacomo Puccini."

scherzo is a term in italic(like many other muscial terms) meaning funny, joyful, light and the like. Generally it was a piece written in 3/4, with fast tempo, light character, resembling a dance. You will ofter find it as a 3rd movement in sonatas (beethovens sonatas ar a good example).

Trio as a form is the contrasting piece following a scherzo (it can also be a trio of instruments, but probably this isn't what you mean). The way contrast is achieved is not standard-it can be through a change of key, a change of feeling(from joyful to something darker for example), change of rythm etc.

Some instruments that are used in a chamber orchestra are bassoons, oboes, clarinets, flutes, and piccolos. Trumpets, trombones, French horns, drums, violins, and cellos are also used. A chamber orchestra will have between 50 or 60 instruments.

An 'aria' -- literally "air" in Italian, meaning song or melody. This would be the most direct answer, but others are a possibility: "arioso", recitative, or the pairing of a "cavatina" and "cabaletto" which together form an entire "scena" (scene) for a singer.

Many opera terms are in Italian, or derived from Italian, due to the importance of the Italians in music during the 15th and 16th centuries. The first Opera is often thought to be L'Orfeo by Claudio Monteverde .

Handel's Messiah is typically played in the key of D major. This key signature consists of two sharps, F# and C#, and provides a bright and uplifting sound to the music. The key of D major is commonly used in Baroque music, which is the era in which Handel composed this famous oratorio.

My orchestra teacher told me this. Beethoven and Mozart are 2 great famous composers but both are different.

Beethoven was always writing dramatic music, considering he was deaf *hard of hearing* he was more inspirational. But Beethoven was always messy, never ever had time to clean up or take baths which was gross. He actually became a prodigy at the age of 5 but also had a very tragic life. *writing a symphony would take 6 months*

Mozart wrote the type of happy, bubbly music. Became a prodigy at the age of 3 - 7 *not accurate* was German of course and was just a plain genius. He was born in the Classic or Baroque era while I think Beethoven was born as well in the classic.

*would take Mozart at least a day to write a symphony!*

hope this had helped!

The musical term for a composed imaginary note is "Tacet." In music notation, "Tacet" indicates that a certain instrument or voice part is silent during a section of a piece, often because there are no notes written for that specific part at that moment. This term is commonly used in orchestral and choral music to indicate when a musician or singer should refrain from playing or singing.
