Piece I - Canon in D
In the Baroque period, the Canon was a well-established musical imitative form. Later in the analysis, I define the piece as being accurate to the title of Canon. Also, it was a popular tune at the time, so this piece is very likely to be aptly representative of it's time period and culture.
Piece II - Tjetjing - Kereman
Balinese gamelan usually has characteristics of: improvisation, a sort of support structure that the rest of the piece is based upon, and has almost exclusively percussive instruments. The piece specifically has only percussive instruments, has attributes that could suggest improvisation, and I notate later a rhythmic section that I believe to be the base for late variations in the piece.
