MUAR 211 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Legato, String Trio, French Horn
Document Summary
Additional terms related to 18th- and 19th-century classical music. Below are a few additional terms from the study guide for exam #2 that we have not yet discussed in class: We have covered only a minimal number of the many genres that commonly appear in classical art music. There are many other common genres that are identified primarily by the number and type of instruments in the ensemble. For instance, an ensemble (and related genres) might be called simply a string trio" or an brass octet", both of which imply a particular instrumentation (ensemble). Brahms, piano quintet in f minor, 1st movement (supplemental example) http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=ujlrdxp61fs woodwind quintet a multi-movement genre always for the following five instruments: flute, clarinet, oboe, bassoon, and french horn. Note that the french horn (a brass instrument) is included in this ensemble, even though it is not a woodwind instrument.
