How can I describe thedifference charater of texturein the music of theRenaissance and that of theBaroque?
I wish some one can help me with this question for a class of music plz help some one, thanks all who trys to or answers my question
Perhaps if you put this in the Music section someone with the historical knowledge could think of something. Am not very au fait with Renaissance music, but I always think it is of a more intimate nature and created for smaller rooms than the music, say, commissioned by a duke somewhere in Europe to be played in a very large palace (development of larger groups of players, more intricate structure in the pieces, and longer pieces of music, and louder instruments to carry sound over a greater distance). Also, consider the development of secular music as against church music (Protestant etc) and professional orchestras (and conductors, of course, such as Lully).
Words to do with musictexture?
hi I need to know these words that are associated with texture in music. Staccato Diminuendo Crescendo Heavy Light Thick Thin Rich Dense Sparse Legato please write a definition for these words in a way that a 12 year old can understand... Thanks in Advance Thanks this really helped!
Staccato - these notes are played detached, which means short. One small tap Diminuendo - playing gradually softer, slowly decreasing the volume Crescendo - playing gradually louder Heavy - playing loudly Light - very soft music, played softly Thick - Music that flows together, in one big mass Thin - Simple music, Rich - Lots of notes, lots of flowing, good quality Dense - echoing Sparse - Not alot to it Legato - notes played smoothly, they are tied together

This is NOT a good question! It is really stupid! If you have to do this for a class, I feel sorry for you! The answer is that, in jazz, you can have ANY timbre (this is the kind of sound- or instrument), ANY texture (some players like Miles Davis and Bill Evans are very sparse, others like Keith Emerson, Tony Williams and Oscar Peterson will just hammer you with a thick coverage of notes) ANY style (I like Latin Jazz and fusion and funk like Ramsey Lewis, others like "cool" jazz, or "smooth" jazz, or West Coast, or East Coast, or Dixieland or classical like Dave Brubeck, or swing like the big band era, etc.) and ANY rhythm (swing, rock, bebop, bossa nova, waltz, 5/4, 9/8, fast, slow, in between, ad infinitum)!
