I’m working on a music discussion question and need a sample draft to help me study.

Let’s consider two pieces of music for voice next: part of Mozart’s Requiem and Schubert’s Lied or art song, Elfking. Listen to both works.*

• Inthe Classical period form was an important concern for composers andlisteners alike. These two pieces approach formal design verydifferently. Are the forms of these pieces as described in the text easyto hear with practice?
• Bothof these pieces are very dramatic in nature. How do their individualapproaches to structural design (form) reinforce the drama that youhear?
• I’msure you’ll want to comment on the similarity in the verbal meaningattached to both these examples — program music in a sense?
