Talk:Chaconne
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I think at some point we need to separate the Bach Chaconne from the original article and link them together. Right now I don't think we have enough in the article to separate them, so I encourage everybody to participate and fill it up. I will work on it more myself later. Thanx everyone.
[edit] Bach's Chaconne moved
I moved the Bach Chaconne section with a few alterations into a separate article on the second partita for solo violin. There is a link from this article to the separate one.
[edit] Bach's Chaconne masterful?
"One of the best known, if not most masterful, examples of the chaconne is [Bach's]." Does this mean that Bach's chaconne is one of the most masterful, or that it isn't? There might be problems both in grammar and in semantics here....
- That sentence doesn't say anything about the masterful-ness of Bach's chaconne. It is stating that it is one of the best known, even if it might not be the most masterful. It could possibly be both, but the author did not choose to say if that was so. :)
[edit] Brahms
I've always read that Brahms "resurrected" the form with the final movement of the Haydn Variations, though the article for that says it's a passacaglia. The wording seems a bit off in this article though, especially when one considers it DID seem to spawn the use of the form from there after. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ 14:40, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
