Composers

Brahm's Symphony 1 took twenty one years to compose, from 1855-1876. The performance usually lasts between 45-50 minutes. The premiere was conducted by Felix Otto Dessoff.

the Genre is actually called "Nocturne" after the piece. romantic compositions were sometimes classified this way.

Dmitriy Shostakovich's Symphony no. 5 in d minor has four movements, designated by their tempos: Moderato, Allegretto, Largo, and Allegro non troppo.

Barry Manilow

As a general rule, a classical symphony has four movements and a classical concerto has three. The nature of their respective first movements and finales is likely to be similar in each case. Each genre will also usually have a slower, more lyrical movement. What a symphony will also have, and a concerto will lack, is a movement cast as a minuet and trio or scherzo and trio.

Dorothea Handel

Yes. He never had kids.

The Sea How it dances brightly

With its silver reflection in the bay

The Sea

Its reflection changes in the rain

The Sea

The summer sky mixes

With the white horses

To be in pure heaven

The Sea

Shepherdess of a blue infinity

Look

Close to the pond

The great soaking wet reeds

Look

The white birds

And the rust coloured houses

The Sea

It rocks and dances in the bay

And sings of love

The Sea

Fills my heart with life

Baroque composers felt as though their music was there to tell a story and evoke emotional responses. The music could be comical or dramatic and often drove people to tears.

Giovanni Pierluigi de Palestrina

with a pencil

He mostly wrote operas and sacred choral music because those were his duties in the Austrian imperial court. As for instrumental music he wrote for piano, organ, and various woodwinds. His favourite instrument to play was the clarinet although he played a number of instruments including keyboards.

He is famous for writing music.

The 18th century was called the Baroque period, and Vienna was a Baroque city. But in his case, he wrote music in that era and in the classical period also. Two eras, one composer.

I'm not to sure so go 2 Bach fun facts on goggle (sorry it is my first time on here!!!!)

Take slow deep breaths in, then let out slowly. Think of the applause you'll get! No matter what instrument; Trumpet, piano, violin, even vocals, It's nearly impossible to not be nervous at all. For one thing, think of playing it perfectly, and not how you could mess up. And MOST IMPORTANTLY, Get a good rest in before the performance, or a really good night's sleep, trust me, it makes a HUGE difference!

No
