One Hour of Classical Music on 88.1 FM (#2)

On September 22, I listened to Classical music on 88.1 FM from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm. In this hour, I listened to two pieces. The first was composed by Ludwig van Beethoven called Symphony No. 6 in F Major, also known as "The Pastoral" (5 movements). The first movement was heavy on violin and other string instruments such as violas, cellos, and bass cellos. These strings resonated in every movement. The second movement incorporated flutes and other winds. In the third movement, the strings were accompanied by trumpets, trombones, timpani, and piccolo. The third, fourth, and fifth movements were strung together without any pauses.
The second piece I heard was entitled Consort Music (6) composed by Geoffrey Bush. This piece was a string orchestra in six movements, in which the only instruments played are chordophones. The cello, viola. violin, and bass cello were used in this orchestra.
