2 Abbreviation Of The Regular Form
This consists chiefly in the
omission of the Principal theme after the Development (that is, in
beginning the Recapitulation with the Subordinate theme). Other
contractions, by omission of portions (Parts) of important thematic
members, during the Recapitulation, are also possible, but not so
common.
An illustration of the omitted Principal theme may be found in
Mendelssohn, Songs Without Words, No. 5:--
Principal Theme, period, extended (measures 1-11, dissolved into
Transition--18).
Subordinate Theme, phrase, repeated and extended (19-28). Codetta
(28-33). Double-bar.
Development (measures 34-58). Retransition (59-62).
Principal Theme--omitted.
Subordinate Theme, as before (63-76). Codetta.
