Movement - Satz (English) German

Japanese: 楽章 - がくしょう(英語表記)Satz ドイツ語
Movement - Satz (English) German

A musical term. In large Western pieces (sonatas, symphonies, concertos, etc.), this refers to the completely independent or relatively independent parts that make up the piece. Each part is called the first movement, second movement, etc. In many cases, the tempo is specified for each part, and the fast movement is called the fast movement and the slow movement is called the slow movement. A piece with this type of structure is called a multi-movement form, while a large piece that cannot be divided into parts, such as Liszt's Piano Sonata in B minor, is called a single-movement form. There are also many pieces that have movements but are played without interruption, such as Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 and No. 9. In a suite, they may be called movements, but are usually called the first, second, etc.

Japanese:

音楽用語。西洋音楽の大きな楽曲(ソナタ、交響曲、協奏曲など)において、それを構成する完全に独立した部分、ないしは比較的独立性の強い部分をさす。各部分は第1楽章、第2楽章などとよばれる。多くの場合、それぞれに速度の指示がなされており、速い楽章を急速楽章、遅い楽章を緩徐楽章といったりする。こういった構成法をもつ楽曲の形式を多楽章形式というが、それに対してリストのピアノ・ソナタ ロ短調のように、部分に分割できない大きな楽曲の形式は単一楽章形式とよぶ。またベートーベンの交響曲第5番や同第9番のように、楽章が存在していても、一部切れ目なく演奏される楽曲も多い。なお組曲では、楽章とよばれる場合もあるが、通常、第1曲、第2曲……とよばれている。
