In this activity, you will listen to Die Forelle by Shubert. In a brief essay (about 100 to 150 words), describe how you can hear strophic form, and a through-composed form. Having both of these forms creates a modified strophic form. Also, listen for the postlude at the end.

Schubert's Die Forelle is one of his most famous works that is set to a text about a trout that swims upstream, only to be caught by an angler. Die Forelle follows a modified strophic form as AABA', in which the first two stanzas follow the same music (A and A) and the third (BA') is set to different music. It starts with a short piano introduction that repeats in the interlude after the first and second stanzas, and as a postlude after the third. This composition is said to be strophic because all the verses are set to the same music in the first and second stanzas.

Through-composed, as opposed to strophic, form is used to describe music where different verses are set to different music. In the case of Die Forelle, the third stanza is set to a different kind of music from the first and second; therefore, this part is Through-composed.

Die Forelle in its entirety is a composition that is both strophic (the same) and at the same time Through-composed (varied).
