    RUclips really became a good place for education if you want it to be that.There are incredebly good channels about maths,biology etc but i always was a bit sad about the lack of classical music edjucation especially when there are 1000 videos about how to play the riff of some rock song that has 3 notes in it.There are so many possibilitiese.g.:visualisation,explaining forms or single pieces or composers .Anyways,thank you, i really enjoyed this well made video and hope ,as the channel is pretty young,that there will be more in the future :)

      Yes. I’m making a series of videos on Classical Music myself. I call the series Analysis from the Arranger’s Perspective and I plan on going over how I went about arranging the piece obviously, like how I decided on the instrumentation and things like that and I also plan on going over why I find some composers easier to arrange than others. And of course I will show the arrangement. The introduction video is out, now I just need to decide on which Mozart piece to arrange for the first arrangement video. On an earlier poll I made (not in community tab because I don’t have a yet) more people voted for Sonata than the other options, so now I’m just down to deciding on which sonata to arrange.

    Note that the ABACABA form has, itself, the ABA form. More explicitly put, consider the (ABA)C(ABA) form.
    It might be amusing to examine some of the extant former forms to discover if B and C are related to A. That is, upon first glance, a musical piece that appears to be as simple as ABACABA might, upon closer inspection actually be aaa(aba)aaa(aca)aaa(aba)aaa for example.
    Your video is a pleasure, by the way -- both visually and aurally!

      @@caterscarrots3407 what about the length of Rondo segmets? Do they have to be about the same length or can B be significantly longer for example? Also, can composer use "bridges" between segments or no?

    • @caterscarrots3407
      @caterscarrots3407 4 года назад +3

      @@krzysztofq7420 Early on in the Classical period, the segments of a rondo are indeed roughly the same length. As time goes on though, the rondo as a whole expands in scope and the C section in particular tends to get longer than the A and B sections as a development section of sorts. And yes, composers can use bridges between segments of a rondo. Beethoven I know to be one composer in particular that uses bridges between segments of some of his rondos. This is particularly noticeable when transitioning from contrasting material back to the A section. Here are a few examples that show how the rondo has progressed over the years
      ruclips.net/video/317LBGFeds8/видео.html - Haydn's Gypsy Rondo, segments are roughly the same length
      ruclips.net/video/TiGKnxAnee0/видео.html - Rondo from Mozart's Piano Sonata in Bb major, it starts out similarly to the Haydn example, but the C section is longer, starting with a development of the B theme, going to contrasting material, and then ending with a development of the A theme. An Exposition/Recapitulation type of asymmetry also shows up in this rondo with the second to last B section twisting into a cadenza, Rondo starts to resemble Sonata form more
      ruclips.net/video/Ifj8dwuAzAQ/видео.html - Pathetique Sonata Rondo, In Beethoven's rondos, including this one, the bridges between sections of the rondo start to show up on a regular basis. Likewise, Beethoven takes the development section within a rondo that shows up in later Mozart works and makes it the norm, really merging the sonata and the rondo into a single Sonata-Rondo form
      ruclips.net/video/L6nLtGcYozU/видео.html - Rondo from Brahms' Piano Quartet in G minor, Each section is more expansive than even the Beethoven example and often separates into 2 subsections. Bridges between and within sections occur here. Like the first example, this Rondo is also in the Hungarian or Gypsy style.
      As you can see from these 4 examples, the Rondo goes from being roughly equal to having a definite asymmetry and more development, becoming like Sonata Form in many ways. And the bridges go from almost nonexistent to definitely being present.

    Before you watch the video read this comment; A Rondo is a work that has repeating sections with the first section repeating the most and the being the last section. A common form of this is A-B-A-C-A-B-A If the letter act as an algebraic representation for sections in a song.

  • @caterscarrots3407
    @caterscarrots3407 3 года назад +1

    I would add another form of rondo to the list of forms that you have and the first Mozart example you have, Rondo alla Turka, is a good example of what I would call an Episode First rondo, as it’s the A major theme, the C theme that feels like the main theme or the refrain, whereas the A theme, the A minor theme at the start of the rondo only appears one more time in the rondo.
