binary form

binary form

Basic musical form in two sections (AB). Section A makes a musical statement but it sounds incomplete on its own. It is answered by section B, which creates the balance. In most binary pieces using the tonal language, the music modulates to the dominant key at the end of section A. Section B begins in the dominant and modulates back to the starting tonic key.
