Question: The musical elements of the third movement of Vivaldi’s Autumn solo violin concerto from the Four Seasons

11 Oct 2022,8:06 PM

 

Compare and contrast the musical elements of the third movement of Vivaldi’s Autumn solo violin concerto from the Four Seasons (a movement we have not studied) with your choice between two other concerto movements that we have studied:
FIRST--Listen to the third (Allegro) of the three movements of Vivaldi’s Autumns (L’Autunno) violin concerto from the Four Seasons:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PapzGRO9edU
On your own computer, write about 300 words comparing this movement either with:
a) the first movement of Vivaldi’s Winter violin concerto in F Minor from the Four Seasons (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPdk5GaIDjo&t=0s) or to
b) the third movement of Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 in F Major (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHpFxA-HbcA), both of which we discussed in class and which Bonds discusses in the text.
Concentrate on the musical elements of the two pieces in your discussion, elements such as tempo, use of solo (how many soloists?) and tutti ritornello, orchestration (soloists, orchestra), meter, major or minor keys, melodic style, mood, whether the music represents anything non-musical, and anything else you can think of. Describe one movement completely first, then the other.
Write the essay as a .doc, .docx, or .pdf in your computer. Then upload the essay onto the exam through Blackboard.
Here is the poem that accompanies the third movement of Vivaldi’s Autumn:
The hunters, at the break of dawn, go to the hunt.
With horns, guns, and dogs they are off,
The beast flees, and they follow its trail.
Already fearful and exhausted by the great noise,
Of guns and dogs, and wounded,
The exhausted beast tries to flee, but dies.

Expert answer

 

The third movement of Vivaldi's Autumn solo violin concerto from the Four Seasons is a fast and lively piece that contains many musical elements. Some of these elements include a fast tempo, virtuosic playing, and melodies that are repeated multiple times. The piece begins with a fast, syncopated melody that is played by the solo violin. This melody is then repeated several times throughout the piece by different instruments, including the orchestra. The piece also contains many virtuosic passages for the solo violin, which showcases the player's technical ability. The third movement ends with a return to the fast, syncopated melody from the beginning of the piece.
