| | Musical composition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A piece of music exists in the form of a written composition in musical notation or as a single acoustic event (a live performance or recorded track). | | | Important in tonal musical composition is the scale for the notes used, including the mode and tonic note. | | | In discussing the structure or organization of a musical work, the "composition" of that work is generally called its musical form. |

| | THE lNTERPRETATIVE MUSICAL FORM OF CHOPIN'S NOCTURNE OP. 27 NO. 2 |
| | To perform music was to communicate to the listener the content of music; to understand this content one had to translate it and to bring it into line with the aesthetic ideals of the public. | | | The musical work was more identified with the meaning of the music than with its notation, and this meaning was associated with an aesthetic ideal that became outmoded in the twentieth century. | | | The fact that one can play a work of music in so many ways indicates that the musical structure is to some extent—and in certain contextual environments an important extent—changeable The musical work seems to have some autonomy in relation to the composer and the score. |

| | Functional concepts of Musical Form |
| | It is a method based on the functional and procedural understanding of the musical form and on the research of the compositional structures in their historical development and in their genre and style context. | | | However, the most important aspect, and traditionally characteristic to the Russian theory of music, is that behind all the analytical procedures and theoretical construction hides the perennial question of the musical form as artistic phenomenon. | | | A more significant formative contribution to the functional theory of musical form appears in the works of B. Asafiev and, more specifically, in the initial part of his fundamental research, The Musical Form as Process. |

| | Island of Freedom - Franz Liszt |
| | In 1844, Liszt was appointed musical director in Weimar; he settled there in 1848 and abandoned concertizing to devote himself to conducting and composition. | | | Though many of Liszt's works contain passages of bombast or sentimentality, his innovations in harmony, musical form, and writing for the piano make him one of the most important and influential composers of the 19th century. | | | From these Weimar years come his best-known large compositions: the two piano concertos, the Totentanz (Dance of Death) for piano and orchestra, the Dante Symphony (1856), and the monumental Faust Symphony (1854-57). |
