The articulation of the main melody could be described as:
- Accented: If the melody features noticeable bursts of sound that emphasize certain notes, giving it a forceful quality.
- Staccato: If the notes are played in a short, detached manner, creating a crisp and separated sound.
- Legato: If the melody flows smoothly from one note to the next, creating a connected and fluid sound.
To determine the correct answer, you would need to listen to the melody and identify the quality of its articulation.
