It's a piece by Tchaikovsky from his Romeo and
-
Juliet, and I think we have the titles
-
of the pieces that we'll be listening to on the board up
-
there today-- so from his Romeo and juliet.
-
And you've probably heard this music before because it used to
-
be--a lot of it used to be used in cartoon music.
-
Anytime there was a love scene this particular
-
music would come on.
-
So what are its qualities here?
-
Well, first of all, it has a long,
-
sweeping melody here in romantic music,
-
a long, sweeping melody that is rather asymmetrical in shape.
