Members Alex D Posted May 25, 2004 Members Share Posted May 25, 2004 I have class in about an hour and see if some of forum friends might have some help. I need a melody (# of), texture (mono, poly, or homophony), duration (tempo, meter rhythm), and dynamics for each movement any help would be greatly helpfull, maybe a web sight or even your own take on it. thanks for helping a slacker in need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members davehorne Posted May 25, 2004 Members Share Posted May 25, 2004 Description? This is a musical piece, do you want a musical analysis or pretty words to describe the mood it puts you in? Is this a musical class or a non-credit non-musical class? An hour before class, huh? You remind of the guy who sat next to me in theory class who would copy my work. If you are desperate use google.

Members C. Martin Posted May 25, 2004 Members Share Posted May 25, 2004 Wow, if you have know about this for a while and have put it off, then thats extremely bad. Very bad decision you made. You should have looked at it and researched it yourself. Otherwise, look on a search engine or books if you have them. Regards,p120dUdE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Alex D Posted May 25, 2004 Author Members Share Posted May 25, 2004 ya it would seem that way, but I was....well it a long and hurtful story that I will share when I'm done healing over it (family illness). But it's a musical history class so no fancy words but also not straight analysis either. I talking music theory analysis. But this is history so he just wants a basic description and I could give him that with out listening but it would be wrong, because beethoven didn't always follw the rules of the classical. So just the theme of the ist movement, which is c# and second is G#, to development and recap but I see minuet and trio thrown around but for 2n movement? is that true. I would figure it was theme and varition? is the 2nd movement slow or moderate? and I see it has only 3 movement so there is no rondo or did he just drop the variation, I would of assumed he dropped the minuet and trio but not from what I have read. so he just wants # of melody for each movment (C# and G# is 2), texture is homophony, durations is where most of the help is needed and dynamics which are every where in music but not so sure for this peice. once again it looks bad but I had to take care of some loved ones in a time of need. I could play the poor me card to the teacher and get a extension but I am going to write a long report on this piece any ways for finals and hope I could not fall behind with a little help from so friends. Oh ya by the way davehorne, when that guy wasn't coping you he was coping me for 2 years from fundmental to jazz theory so I feel ya there, but it is no where near that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very bad decision you made. You should have looked at it and researched it yourself. Otherwise, look on a search engine or books if you have them. Regards, p120dUdE the real report is due on the 6 of june and it will be done as soon as my genetic bioengineering research and repot is done, it has just grown so large that it needs to be pared down and that has taken alot of time to decide which is the least important also please understand I said slacker as more of a self lothing rather then really being a slacker. True I did know for 7 days that this small sheet of paper needed to be turned in, but shit happens and I had to choose. I would like to get this done. so how does this sound if you know ist movement is in a fast speed (allegro) that starts with the first theme of C# which is the first melody and then to G# in the 2nd theme, then goes to devolpement and The second movement is a relatively conventional minuet and trio, a moment of relative calm written in D flat major. This key signature is enharmonically equivalent to C sharp major, that is, the tonic major for the work as a whole. The slightly odd sound of the first eight bars seems to be the result of the minuet starting in the "wrong" key; i.e. the dominant key of A flat major. The music settles into D flat only in the second phrase. the third movement is (?), is it a rondo ?The writing has many fast arpeggios and strongly accented notes, and an effective performance demands flamboyant and skillful playing. Beethoven was known to break hammers and strings when he played, and it is easy to imagine this happening when he performed this movement. thanks for any input on this description, once again this is not theory analaysis but more music history form and function analaysis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have anything that can help me please help me. Thank you Yeah, its going to be pretty tough getting info on it. Someone should really invent a computer system that connects various computers together like a web. That would be sweet, then you could type in "Moonlight Sonata" and get all kinds of info. Maybe even an encyclopedia written by the people, and videos of people playing the Sonata. Someday we'll have something like that, as soon as Al Gore gets off his ass and invents it.

Members feralmusic Posted November 8, 2008 Members Share Posted November 8, 2008 let's dance about architecture! [YOUTUBE]bPzzvcYYugE[/YOUTUBE] player or listener, i think one must live and experience the dark weariness along with the joy of our human condition in order to capture the moonlight sonata. i have several students who play this sonata technically accurate, but the darkness and passion are missing. they'll get it with time.

Members xmlguy Posted November 9, 2008 Members Share Posted November 9, 2008 The Moonlight Sonata is a cheerful celebration of the light of the Moon, frequently used in cartoons, circus trapeze acts and merri-go-rounds. It's a delightful, lighthearted romp of a melody, very similar to Flight of the Bumblebee and the William Tell Overture. It will certainly lift the spirits of anyone who hears it.

Members Delicious Lamprey Problem Posted November 9, 2008 Members Share Posted November 9, 2008 The Moonlight Sonata is a nefarious homage to Satan, frequently used in the ritual sacrifice of farmyard animals, nubile teenage girls and traffic police. It's a demented, sadistic, travesty of a melody, very similar to the eternal screaming of souls eternally trapped in the ninth circle of Hell. It will certainly drive insane anyone who hears it.
