There were many reasons why Germans left their homeland to make the treacherous journey across the Atlantic to America. Although much has been said about religious persecution, dissenters compromised a minority of German immigrants to Pennsylvania. Most were affiliated with Lutheran and Reformed churches, conservative religious groups.

Match each descriptive label with the correct excerpt from Britten's Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra.
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

form --------> theme and variations

perforning forces --------> full orchestra

texture ----------> homophonic at the beginning, polyphonic at the ned

melody --------> based on a Baroque tune

Explanation:

Britten's Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra is a musical composition created by Benjamin Britten and presents a youthful concept focused on entertainment and fun. The work has a very youthful aspect, despite having been composed in 1945.

The entertainment is due to the melody's ability to show and dismantle the orchestra in a very harmonious way. This is noticed right after the whole orchestra touches on the central theme of the work, followed by a moment when each family of instruments has its prominence, providing different and interesting introductions.

What is the Duomo and who built it?
Lena [83]
The Basilica<span> di Santa Maria del Fiore (Saint Mary of the Flower), nicknamed the Duomo after the enormous octagonal </span>dome<span> on its east end, is the </span>cathedral<span> of Florence, Italy, and, arguably, the birthplace of the </span>Renaissance.

<span>A cathedral is a </span>bishop<span>'s church. There are many other </span>Catholicchurches in Florence, many of them associated with the Renaissance, including Santa Maria Novella, Santa Croce, and the Brancacci Chapel. However, the Duomo is the home church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese<span> of Florence, which traces its roots to 394 CE.</span>

<span>Although construction was begun in 1296, the cathedral did not get the structure that gives it its name until 1436. The east end of the church was open to the </span>elements<span> or covered with flat, unstable roofing for more than a </span>century<span>. </span>

<span>The huge octagonal shape proved </span>daunting<span> to </span>engineer<span>s and </span>architect<span>s. Italian architects were familiar with circular domed shapes, such as the Pantheon in Rome. However, those domes were constructed with </span>concrete<span>. The recipe for concrete had been lost in the </span>Dark Ages<span>. </span>

Medieval<span> gothic cathedrals, such as Notre Dame de Paris in France, relied on </span>flying buttresses to support their massive stone weight. Architects and engineers of the budding Renaissance were determined not to use flamboyant Gothic style or flying buttresses—they wanted to look back to the simple, clean lines of their Roman past.

<span>The architect </span>Filippo Brunelleschi<span> came up with a solution. The Duomo is actually </span>two<span> domes. The inner dome is made of </span>sandstone<span> and </span>marble<span>. The outer dome is made of </span>brick-and-mortar<span>—each brick carefully designed, shaped, and fired to support the dome. The dome was constructed without any supports beneath it. </span>

<span>The Duomo was an immediate success, and Brunelleschi became the chief architect associated with the Renaissance. </span>

<span>In an ironic twist, the marble facade of the cathedral (not visible in this photograph) was only completed in the late 1800s, during a period when medieval, not Renaissance, art was popular. The birthplace of the Renaissance has a medieval face.

Which of these is a prepositional phrase? in the garden or to receive the children or two benches or waited
Licemer1 [7]
In the garden. I’m not sure though because I think it could also be to receive the children.

They’re both made up of a preposition followed by a noun but i would go with in the garden

Answer:

The strength of “portrait mode” on any device running is the ability to recognize faces. As humans, we are hard-wired to recognize faces. So, the algorithms in the camera app tend to pay special attention to faces forgoing all other details including hair, ears, or other objects in the same focal plane. Therefore making her photos look more detailed.
