Part 1: Reflect on Content (Pick one)
(200 words = SHORT) A) The term “Romantic” has a different meaning from the usual understanding of it when we talk about music history. Listen to the fourth movement of Hector Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique and Edvard Grieg’s In the Hall of the Mountain King.* The listening guides are on pp. 204 and 213 in the textbook, respectively.
What is Romantic (with a capital R) about these two pieces?
How does the composers’ use of the (Romantic) orchestra support the meaning of the music?
Part 2:
Tie the content of your Part 1 to a music sample that you find and post. This should be music you know and listen to—that is, not “Western Art Music,” unless that is what you know and listen to.
Embed a youtube video or other content that allows readers to easily see and hear your sample. Tell us who we are seeing/hearing, why you chose it, and how the sample ties to your Part 1 discussion. Be specific and detailed. Write thoughtfully and well.
