of “The Beatles”, the self-entitled White Album The first song of the album, “Back in the USSR”, written by Paul McCartney, directly parodies and references the Beach Boys, with subtler allusions to Chuck Berry and Ray Charles.

Song form consists of an intro, four verse sections, each followed by a refrain, a bridge that follows only the second and third refrains, and an outro. The melody is undoubtedly bluesy, but further innovates on…

25 as piano plays the accompaniment like what it did in the exposition, playing some triplet arpeggios in the tonic key (E major). Instead of flute and clarinet playing the main theme of the movement, the violins take their role and play the theme. However, piano didn’t repeat the theme this time and the theme is continued playing by the violins in Bar 3-4 at Score Fig…

CHAPTER TWO - CRITICAL ANALYSIS 2.1 Exploration Of Tonality And The Pentatonic Scale Blossoms on a Moonlit River has been written in G major, and this is known from an author’s note written above the stave and the key signature (Fig 2a).

It is all about finding out who you are and what you want. But once you have forged your sword (it usually takes six months to two years), then you focus on just taking action. No more analyzing (too much analysis will hurt you), just focus on taking action. That being said, Sentou Kaishi is all up to you. Do whatever gets…
