  e. Serialism



Question 2

Compare and contrast the musical style of Debussys Prelude to The Afternoon of a Faun and the Ride of the
  Valkyries from Wagners Die Walkre. For the purposes of the essay, ignore the text setting of the vocal line and simply
  consider it as another strand of orchestral texture. Focus attention on the style of melody, use of musical climax, and
  treatment of the orchestra that these two composers employed. In what way are these compositions representative of
  Impressionism and the late-Romantic style of German music?


 
  What will be an ideal response?
