asked:

I am a pianist and was born with an impeccable ear, so I can play almost anything I listen too. However I can’t read music. I know the basics, I just need more drilling and practice. Are there any websites or programs that have flashes or anything that will help drill reading music into my head? Thank you.

Musical form refers to the organization and shape of a composition’s elements, giving it a sense of structure and coherence.  Both popular and classical composers employ several standard forms, but their basic principle is the same:  repetition and contrast.

The smallest musical unit that a composer works with is the the motif, typically just a few notes having a characteristic rhythm and interval structure.  A composer will build a motif and expand it to a larger musical gesture or phrase of a few measures.  A second phrase may complement the first one creating a larger unit in what we typically think of as a melody.  The second phrase may start off with a repetition of the original motif, but it usually finishes somewhat differently than the first phrase.  The following melody from Mozart’s Eine Kleine Nachtmusik exemplifies this two phrase structure:

Mozart's Piece is a great example of how to learn to read music forms
