Question

After hearing the Adagio of a chamber work written in this home key, Pyotr Tchaikovsky praised its evocation of “resigned and inconsolable sorrow.” In a symphony in this key, the third movement minuet jarringly begins with a hemiola effect in which the melody plays in two while the accompaniment plays in three. Haydn’s Tempesta di Mare symphony may have inspired a later composer to include 4 horns in a symphony in this key. Four measures of five-note, syncopated patterns on one pitch, (15[1])in the order (*) G, D, E-flat, F-sharp, (10[2])open that symphony (10[1])in this key. (10[1])Another symphony in this (10[1])key (10[1])begins (-5[1])with strings playing the phrase E-flat, D, D, (-5[1])repeated three (10[1])times. For 10 (10[1])points, (10[1])name this key of two Mozart symphonies (10[2])nicknamed “Little” (10[1]-5[1])and (10[1])“Great,” a minor key with two flats. (10[3])■END■
