Test 2 part 2 – Here we have a progression of Symphonies from Vienna. Haydn and Mozart\u2019s last symphonies. Beethoven and Brahms\u2019s first symphonies and one of the last symphonies of Mahler and the only Symphony of Anton Webern. Using the questions below compare and contrast all the works. You may do this assignment in essay form or present it in a graphic way listing movements but also answering the questions with full sentences. Include a portrait of each composer in your work. For example, the Beethoven – Haus in Bonn Germany has an amazing digital archive of images.\u00a0https:\/\/www.beethoven.de\/en\/archive\/list
The assignment is free form – past students have done this assignment as a spread sheet. Make your work chronological and do it in an organized way. I suggest you start out your research with a list of the works, dates and movements and go from there. As usual if you have questions please don\u2019t be afraid to ask me for ideas and advice. The assignment is due August 2rd by end of day.
