The answer to, and winner (if any) for,
our last contest question of:
When I write my piano pieces – I call them bagatelles -
I most often write them in the ABA form. That means that I start
with a melody passage or theme. Then I switch to
a second melody passage or variation of that theme. And finally I repeat the first passage to end it. That’s the ABA form.
(Personal note: In my case I like to do a major key part, then minor key, then back to the major key to end it).
Question:
What other creatures compose music in the ABA form?
IS
Whales! The songs are by males during mating season! Talk about being a big romantic!
We had no winner. Your thinking was fishy (it should have been mammalian!)
I don’t
dumb down,
so please
wise up.

with the correct answer to this art question*
Pizzicato is when the string player plucks the strings instead of using a bow. This classical composer’s 3rd movement of one of his symphonies had the string section play pizzicato throughout. Name the composer and the symphony.
Good luck!
