The basic sequence is Intro, Exposition, Development, Recapitulation and Coda. • -EXPOSITION: Main theme(s) are presented, usually in the home key and then a modulated key • -THEME / THEME GROUP: musical paragraph . These can be broken down into 1 or more tunes . These are grouped according to key and end on cadences. The 1st Theme Group is in the home key. The 2nd Theme Group is in the dominant or other key. • -CLOSING/CADENCE SECTION: a theme group which closes the Expo or Recap (it follows the 2nd theme) and revives Theme 1 to provide closure. • -MODULATING BRIDGE/TRANSITION: material to get from 1 key/theme group to another, often w sequencing. • -DEVELOPMENT: free-form working out / fantasia section where earlier themes are subjected to variations and atomizations. Possibly a new theme is introduced ( Eroica ). • -RECAPITULATION: Repeat of the Expo, except that this section remains in the same key throughout and there can be theme variations from the initial Expo versions of themes. • -CODA: Follows the Recap, kind of a second development designed to finish off the work. • -SEQUENCING: repeating a phrase on different starting notes (keys) • -TERNARY FORM: 3-part form in A-B-A, usually a Scherzo or Minuet • -SCHERZO/MINUET: 1st pt. of a 3-pt. Scherzo form, usually AA.BA'.BA' in 3/4 time. Lively. • -TRIO: Middle section of a Scherzo movement, slower, broader than the Scherzo section • -RONDO: Similar to Sonata form except that the Development is replaced by a new section and there is less transition material. A principal theme (A) alternates with contrasting themes (BCD...). (Ex.ABACABA.) • -FUGUE: form in which a subject(s) undergoes canonical permutations • -VARIATION: repeat of a theme with variation • -CADENZA: unaccompanied instrumental solo • -BINARY FORM: Structure in AB. 2-Part Song form. • (Disclaimer: I do not have a music degree, all of the above is purely from memory and observation) • ..................................................................................................... • String Quartet Op.135 • 1st Mvmt • Exposition • -1 • -2 • -3 • Development • Recap: • -1 • -2 • -3 • Coda • ......... • 2nd Mvmt • -Scherzo • -Trio • -Scherzo • ......... • 3rd Mvmt • -Main Th. • -Var1 • -Var2 • -Var3 • -Var4 • ......... • 4th Mvmt • Introduction • Exposition • -1 • -2 • Expo rpt • -1 • -2 • Development • Recapitulation • -1 • -2 • Coda
