Rondo form is basically a slightly more advanced version of ternary form. Instead of two themes, there are three. This means that instead of the structure being ABA as in ternary form, the structure is ABACABA. When a theme is repeated, for a second, third or fourth time, a variation may be made to make it more interesting. An example of this could be ABA2CA3B2A4.
Example of Rondo Form: Beethoven's Third Symphony in E Flat, 2nd Mvt.
Composition these days hasn't been easy. I haven't had any inspiration to write anything in such a long time, and even the pieces I said I would be working on this year haven't been as easy I thought. I've decided though to buckle down for the rest of the summer and produce an awesome piece of music which will probably be called Awesome Overture . So far all I've worked on is the main theme. Here's a sneak peak....

As the sequel to Triumphant March, Shadow March is the musical opposite. Instead of the soaring triumphant melody, there is an evil, driving line, reminiscent of the fourth movement of The New World Symphony. "I've been working quite a few *commissions lately," said Everett C. Davis, composer, "but I just haven't had any inspiration. Both marches I've written have been ways to continue to write music, and because they've been so easy to write, I didn't have to look past the classics, and John Williams for inspiration." *Commissions of Everett C. Davis are really just composition requests, as that he does not request any money.
