    Menuet Vs G Major Essay

    • 1724 Words

    measure twenty-four. The “middleman,” or the quarter note, serves to bridge the eighth notes and cadences together as well as function as giving the movement moments to breathe, almost like a quasi-cadence. Interestingly enough, the quarter notes outline the tessitura of each phrase. Sometimes, the quarter note is a fourth or fifth apart from notes of the phrase. All rhythmic patterns in both the Menuets interconnect to create a smooth melodic line to transition to the cadence, the end goal. My second point I like to elaborate on is the tonal shifts. Music has a starting and ending point. What is different for all composers and their compositions is the middle. In the Baroque period, the piece generally begins on tonic, modulating to the dominant, transitioning back to tonic. Bach follows these conventional standards, yet he is able to invent music in such a way that his counterpoint is able to reflect interest and attention in his melodical ideas. Starting from the beginning, the Menuet spells out a G major chord. Bach has spelled out tonic explicitly, to ensure the performer and listener understands the tonal key as well as presenting irrefutable evidence of G major’s presence. For the most part, scalar passages are used to transition to the end of the first half. It is not until the second half until a shift in tonality occurs. Not only does the G-sharp in measure eleven signify a modulation to A, it demonstrates the need to move forward. Bach carefully crafts the shift…

A dominant culture is when the majority of people in one area such as a country, a city or an island follows the same culture.
