In measures 16 and 17, which instruments appear to have the melody? Which instruments appear to play accompanimental parts? What dynamic does each of these instruments play? Does dynamic change over time? How is this dynamic indicated in the score?

Answer 1

In measures 16 and 17, the melody appears to be played by the flute and the clarinet. The accompanimental parts appear to be played by the strings and the piano. The flute and clarinet play at a forte dynamic, while the strings and piano play at a piano dynamic. The dynamic does not change over time. The dynamic is indicated in the score by the use of the words "forte" and "piano" above the staff.
