Analysis of Bohuslav Martinu


This music is instrumental. It is a very good music classic. This music is really good, because this piece sound of music contain a certain feeling. Also It has a fade in and fade out, to make an impression that it can bring the people feeling up and down. “up” is identical with energetic, “encourage” the listener, and “down” is to make people relax. It has a very good combination of sounds. These pieces of music also have a empty sound. It relate to the design of surrealism, which is a “space”.

There is a low sound, but most of the sounds are loud. In this sound piece, it’s different with Bohuslav’s. This sound has a human voice. This type of sound is kind of mystic feeling. Dark music, it sounds like they summoning something. The combinations of sounds are well with each other. It also has a fade in and a fade out.
