MUSI 112: Listening to Music
Lecture 11 - Form: Rondo, Sonata-Allegro and Theme and Variations (cont.). In this lecture, Professor Wright prepares the students for the upcoming concert they will attend, which will include pieces by Mozart, Brahms, and Beethoven. He discusses each of the pieces that will be on the program, paying special attention to form. Additional classical pieces are used to supplement the discussion of theme and variations and rondo form in the concert pieces. The lecture concludes with an example of rondo form found in a piece by the contemporary popular artist Sting. (from oyc.yale.edu)
