Before listening to five assigned Mozart's compositions, listen once again to Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No.3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKgLEWv9imE

After that listen carefully to Mozart's pieces.

Focus on the following elements of these compositions: dynamics (loud/soft, constant or changing), rhythm, melody (can you distinguish, easily memorize basic theme), harmony and texture (what instruments are used, can you distinguish separate instruments, how do they play part in the whole composition). Then write in your forum post:

1 - What characteristics (in terms of listed elements) did you find that Mozart's pieces have in common?

2 - Compare Mozart's Classical compositions to Bach's Baroque Brandenburg Concerto. What are the most striking differences based on the above listed elements of musical compositions.

3 - Describe how you personally felt/experienced the difference in listening Mozart's music compared to Bach's concerto.

4 - What is your personal favorite among assigned Mozart's compositions. Explain why?
