RELATION OF CLASSICAL MUSIC TO OTHER ART FORMS (1750-1820)

The music of the Classical period, particularly in the works of

Haydn, Mozart and the young Beethoven can, like the
paintings of the time, be seen as an exercise in harmony, order,
balance and structure. The twenty-four-hour rule, the unity of
time, action and space, was still in effect in opera and theatre.

I n painting, Jacques-Louis David’s Napoléon, considers the

canvas itself again, as Renaissance painters did. The main
purpose of the painting is to convey information, to tell a story,
and not to refer to itself as a painting.

In Mozart’s opera “The Abduction from the Seraglio”. Architectural

thinking became the greatest concern of these composers. Whereas
contrast is the essence of Classical music – a contrast of dynamics, music
shifting back forth from forte to piano– the contrast of register with
wide-ranging melodies and wide spaces between base and soprano – the
contrast of mood, even within one movement of a work, the Classical
style of music is always conceived as an architectural entity. The order,
balance, structure and harmony reflected in these buildings’ architecture
became themes broadly used within all artistic expression

Activity: Read the concept notes about the relation of classical music to other art forms. Write a
short reflection BELOW about how the classical music was related to other art forms such as
painting and architecture. (3 to 5 sentences)
