SOUL SOUND

Regarded as the most well-known composer until today is Ludwig van Beethoven. A german composer that made Symphony 5 which is mostly heard in cartoon shows(Tom and Jerry) as well as played and learned by a number of orchestras and musicians. The piece is still popular and remarkable because of its compelling energy of the entire first movement that is made from only a short opening of four notes. It is the main element of the piece made by the composer including its “contrasting” second subject is built upon the melodic outlines of the first bars and is accompanied by the motive itself. In continuation to the piece which is the development section, makes use not only of the motive as a whole, but also of the individual parts. The rhythm of the piece alone drives the movement relentlessly. Successfully implementing its message to the end of the piece, after such an outburst, the ear and mind long for a respite.

There are still compositions that are played, republished as well as modified in various forms which many people still listen to today. Canon in D that is composed by Pachelbel are remade in the form of cover videos, social media applications as well as performed in wedding songs. It is one of the best-known pieces of classical music ever written before and continued to be known today. The composer wrote this piece with tight harmonies and the three pretty and satisfying violin tunes, concluding that Pachelbel’s approach accompanied by his great skill to writing the music was almost mathematical.
