Media. So, one piece of art can be made of one medium or
several media. If you've ever been to an art museum or gallery, you've

'Oil on Canvas'
'Tempera on Wood'
'Ink on Silk
Answer: rectative, aria, ground bass and triple.
Explanation:
The rhythm of the RECITATIVE is free, and the rhythm of the ARIA is more regular. The harmony of the aria is based on a chromatic GROUND BASS that descends by half step. The slow and melancholy TRIPLE meter expresses in the aria Dido's lamentation at Aeneas's departure.
