MUS-1010 Final Exam Questions And
Answers With Complete Verified Solution
Define "song"
song is defined as vocal music with lyrics.
The Elements of Music
Rhythm, melody, harmony, timbre, texture, form, mood, style
3 facts to compare concerts and recitals
Concerts are generally large instrumental ensembles such as orchestras or bands.
Recitals generally featured a single performer or a small group of performers.
Concerts are often held in larger venues. Recitals tend to take place in smaller like
recital halls.
In concerts, the interaction among performers is essential. Recitals often involve more
direct interaction between the performer and the audience.
3 facts to compare program music and absolute music
-Program music has its extra-musical references, its stories and visual images. Absolute
music: Instrumental music had been assumed to exist for its intrinsic musical and
intellectual value, music for music's sake
-Program music became more prevalent during the Romantic era, when music
emphasized the evoking of powerful emotions and images. Absolute music has been
present throughout the history of Western classical music.
-While the program music gives you an image or story to listen for, absolute music
requires you to form your own images or stories while listening.
FOLK songs:
Written by by amateurs or "common folk" that have become traditional within a culture.
They are transmitted aurally
Featuring simple melodies and simple forms, folk songs are usually performed with little
or no accompaniment.
In today's "shrinking" world where we all are increasingly connected by the Internet and
other mass media, folk or traditional music may become a thing of the past.
ART songs:
Art songs are composed by trained musicians and are intended to be of a "high quality"
craftsmanship.
Art songs are written down, so their original melodies and lyrics remain unchanged over
time.
The art song could be defined as "poetry set to music" as the lyrics of art songs are
usually pre-existing poems.
Art songs have primarily been accompanied by the piano.
Art songs require trained vocalists to perform them.
As a result of changing values during the Baroque and Classical eras, composers
focused on other types of music, chiefly opera and large instrumental forms, and
created fewer art songs. In the 20th century, the music world became increasingly
obsessed with popular songs, which nearly eclipsed the art song genre
