A MUSIC PROBLEM.“ EMOTIONAL ARFFERENCE BE TWEEX KEYS,
Music in the minor kers usually pro duces a feeling of sndness, while majur music has the contrary effect.
R. W. Mendi, discusses the reason in the Musical Quarterly,
There are, of course, exceptions, he writes. The Adagio of Beethoven's oth Symphony, as an instance, is in a major key, but nearly everyone agrees that it beach.
The Dead March, in Handel's Saul, is in the major and it is not so sad as the the Funeral Marches of Beethoven and Chopin, which are in minor keys. -
The writer als stances the main then af the Scherzo in the 8th Sym- phony, which is in D minor, as bring. by no means sad: Bat it is less ebeerful than the major portions of the same movement and in the trio, which is in D major, the music seems almost to revel in the mujor key after so much
The minor.
Scherzo from- Gonpud's Philemon et Baneis is in a minor key, and yet is most light warted. "Nevertheless, play a major hurd on the piano, and them a minor chord, and there can be go question as to this distinction. What is the causet
Addressing the question of what it in music that makes it of a sad or cheerful nature, the writer asserts that music, as a means of suggesting moods or emotions, stands on a different font ing fruin any other art.... In order words. the form of sentiment contained in music is an independent and unique entity. It is distinct in kind from that which can be portrayed in any other. way than by music. It follows from this that a verbal explanation of a composer's intentions, even if he has given it hitself, is at best, an inadequate, paraphrase of the So. ideas represented by the music. when we say that a composer huge beable. to expres his emotions more casily or more completely by music than by world", we were greatly understanding the case.
Really, those particular feelings which he embodies in music could not be presented by him in any other wag. Llei suggests in music not just sorrow, but a form of it such as can only be conveyed musically. Moreover, it is different in some respect. from the reflection of grief in any other piece of music in the world."
