Understanding structural arrangement and how music is organized ...

[Garrulous]

Understanding structural arrangement and how music is organized also helps us understand how various cultures and subcultures think about time and space in general but there is more to music than the structure of sounds. What else beyond the structural elements of rhythm, meter, melody, and harmony, do we need to study to gain a complete understanding of the music?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

In general, form in the arts means structural arrangement. In music form refers to patterns of organization in rhythm, melody, and harmony. A musical thought is made up of phrases that result from the combinations of sounds. Name two examples that illustrate how form is used to organize music. (Examples may vary.)
