A is da answer!!!! ...................
Answer:
The rhythmic approach in a recitative is best described as
Flexible and free.
Explanation:
Rhythm is "an ordered recurrent alternation of strong and weak elements in the flow of sound and silence in speech," according to Merriam-Webster online dictionary, which describes the accent, meter, and tempo of the voice.
A recitative is a narrative that describes the action, thought, or emotion in an opera, oratorio, cantata, or other multi-movement vocal compositions, usually following the natural flow of the language. It is a speaking composition and therefore free and flexible rather than strict and fast.
In an opera, oratorio, cantata, or other multi-movement vocal compositions, a recitative is a narrative song that describes some action, thought, or emotion. The recitative follows the natural flow of the language and is more of a speaking composition than a singing composition.
The correct answer is true
A the songs were strictly secular in nature
The correct answers are:
- Early religious, folk, and popular song traditions derived from mainland Europe;
- Native American music was deemed primitive, and thus unworthy, by European settlers;
In the early American music, the European influences were dominant because of multiple reasons. For starters, the new settlers were almost entirely from European origin, so naturally they brought the religious, folk, and popular song traditions from mainland Europe with them. The music traditions of the Native Americans were considered as primitive and unworthy, so they were neglected and pushed aside. The fact that most of the native populations died out because of diseases, and partially because of wars, meant that they did not had majority, nor power to prevent the new music traditions to overtake America.
