Young people's concerts with the New York Philharmonic

The sound of an orchestra: A great orchestra should not have its own sound, piece after piece, year after year. What makes an orchestra great is its ability to change at will. Since every composer has a unique sound, that is what the orchestra must strive to deliver. This program shows you how a great orchestra does this, and how it avoids committing certain common musical "sins." What is a melody?: A tune is a simple piece of music you can hum or sing. Symphonic music often starts not with a tune, but with several shorter fragments, which are then woven into melody. An orchestrea may also play two different melodies at the same time, yielding a fascinating tapestry of sound known as counterpoint.

  • "What is classical music?: To music teachers, "classical" music is really the music of 18th century Europe, which was formulated by Bach and Handel in a strict, almost mathematical style. Later, Haydn and Mozart changed the formula to add grace and elegance. Still later came Beethoven, a genius who broke all the rules and ushered in the Romantic period. What makes music symphonic?: Unlike pop music, synphonic music takes simple musical themes and then "develops" them--that is, changes and expands them--in a dazzling variety of costumes. To "dress up" music symphonically the composer may rearrange the notes, add chords, change the pitch, modify the tempo, play one theme against another--the possibilities are endless."@en

  • "What does music mean?: Even if a composer deliberately writes music to follow a story line, the ultimate "meaning" of great music is not the story but the sounds themselves and all the underlying emotions and feelings that the composer has worked to express. Those emotions are not "extras," but an integral part of the music. What is sonata form?: A plain old song often unfolds as three basic parts: A-B-A. Amazingly, a typical sonata movement is just an expanded version of the ordinary, everyday song. To add drama to the sonata, the composer moves between related musical keys. Once you can pick out the A-B-A sections and the changing keys, you'll be an expert on sonata form!"@en
