- Stylistic features of Haydn's Symphony 26
- Periodic phrasing
- Bars 1-16
- multiples of 2 and 4
- Bars 1-16
- Changes in mood
- Bs 1-8 are energetic and fluid with syncopation following phrase from, b 9 '4 sighs' are homorhythmic and a break from the fluidity.
- Functional harmony+ tonality
- Much use of primary chords to establish the key V-1 perfect cadences.
- Interesting rhythmic seperation of ideas with pauses
- Pause after crotchet 3 Bar 8 to seperate the first phrase with the next contrasting phrase
- Basic sonata form
- 1st subject tonic, 2nd subject relative major
- development - explores different keys
- recap, - ends on tonic major to avoid ideas becoming used in the same key twice.
- development - explores different keys
- 1st subject tonic, 2nd subject relative major
- sturm und drang
- precursor to romanticism
- aim is to disturb, frighten and display extremes of emotion
- tense harmony including diminished 7ths and suspension
- triple suspension 'christ' bar 31
- Dynamics few but important
- Piano repeat of 65-66 at 66-67 creates echo effect
- P marking at 'christ' bar 26 metaphorical of the Lord's suffering
