This was a moment which changed the trajectory of his work, as he had much more time to write music and dive deeper into his artistic exploration. The reason this moment really impacted me was because I have experienced something quite similar through my experience as an aspiring artist. My whole life, I played sports and thought about potentially pursuing them in college. However, my love for theatre and artistic collaboration was always a priority for me. I remember the exact moment where I made the decision to quit sports in order to fully commit to my artistic dreams.

There are many differences and similarities between the fourth movement of Beethven’s Fifth symphony and the fourth movement of Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique, whether it is the orchestrastion of the pieces, the dynamics, form and period. Ludwig van Beethoven is one of the most well known Classical composers in music history, born into a family of musicians and was seen by his father as a profitable prodigy and had several of his piano compositions published by the age of twelve. He was the first successful freelance composer and changed the way music was composed and performed as he composed pieces that defied the standard ways of composing during the Classical era by using an expanded form structure, larger orchestra, dramatic themes and replaced minuet and trio with scherzo and trio making the third movements of his symphonies faster than traditionally performed. He also treated instruments as individuals instead of grouping them together such as the bass instruments which originally formed the Basso continuo. Beethoven experimented with the ways an instrument could be played , creating new sounds, and would have large pitch ranges between instruments which aided in the expressiveness and drama of his pieces.
Schools that have been labeled as low preforming schools and do not wish to undergo staff reconstruction, have the option of becoming a charter school. As the dictionary puts is, charter schools are “a publicly funded independent school established by ‘teachers, parents, or community groups under the terms of a charter with the local or national authority.” In order to get into a charter school, applying students must pass a test. Because students must pass a test to get into the school the school will only be accepting the best of the students therefor it will not have to worry about low test scores as only the smartest children will be attending. The problem with charter school is, while yes there students are thriving, there test scores
If we compare his music to the composers from the Baroque, Classical or even the Romantic era, we can find one very important difference: the music of Steve Reich is a state, while the music of Beethoven, for example, is a process. With that idea in mind, I believe that even though music is an art of time and organizing pitches or notes, Steve Reich gave time a significant role in his pieces. Time was an extremely important factor in his music, which separated him from other musicians. Another interesting aspect of his creation is giving the spoken word or poetry a lot of attention while writing the music, and by that we can also consider him a multimedia artist. As I mentioned before, we cannot connect his music with the past musical epochs (or at least not as bold as we might consider a true influence from some other composers’ styles).
Zhang Zhou Yaodong Professor Greg Peterson Classical styles and romantic spirits 2 November 2016 Richard Strauss Violin Sonata Richard Strauss (1864-1949), was a leading German composer and conductor. His orchestral compositions and operas have made him one of the best known composers of the late Romantic and early modern eras. While Strauss did not pay much attention to his chamber music in his later life, in earlier years he tried to compose several different types of chamber works such as a string quartet, two piano trios, a piano quartet and several instrumental sonatas. Now I will introduce his last work of chamber music, the violin sonata. At the age of 23, Strauss composed
