The quizzes in M542 are designed to prepare you for the major examinations.  While the Exams will involve more substantial and detailed treatment of the materials, the format of the quizzes will be consistent with portions of the Exams, in particular with regards to the Assigned Listening and Term identification.  A list of the Assigned Listening and Term/Name items for Quiz 2 appear below.  Please note that the listening list includes both NAWM and Supplemental Listening items.

Excerpts of several Assigned Listening items will be played (only once per excerpt).  For each, you will need to supply a correct and adequate identification of the excerpt, including:

• Composer
• last name only unless two or more composers of the same last name are represented, e.g., "Bach"
• Title
• enough to distinguish the work from other similar works--thus, Sammartini "Sinfonia in G" must be qualified with J-C 39 for a correct identification; Sammartini J-C 39 alone would also be sufficient
• Movement or Act and Scene, as appropriate
• for opera examples, you may supply either the title of the recit/aria or the Act and Scene from which the excerpt is drawn
• Date (+/- 5 yrs.)
• Grout/Palisca and NAWMwill provide you with the dates for the Anthology excerpts.  Other dates can be obtained from the composer works lists in the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians .

• A brief (1-2 sentence) definition
• A related composer or work (or other) as appropriate
• A relevant date (usually with regards to the composer or work)
• A brief (1-2 sentence) statement concerning the importance and/or significance of the Terms
