Rite Of Spring Major Part
1,791 words
An introduction to 'The Rite of Spring', The part
I of the Rite of Spring starts with an "
introduction ." The texture at the very beginning
is extremely thin, and the only instrument in use
is the bassoon, in an unusually high tessitura.
The bassoon is soon joined by the Horn, and later,
a pair of clarinets. This little wind ensemble
creates an eerie feeling, and the fact that tempo
rubato is employed makes the whole start very
unstable, as if the 'grand work' has just had a
bad kick-off. Howev...

viewed through the eyes of the mental patient. She

friendship and great displays of violence.
However, one prominent theme in most of the novels
