Satz (German for sentence, movement, set, setting[a]) is any single member of a musical piece, which in and of itself displays a complete sense, (Riemann 1976: 841) such as a sentence, phrase, or movement.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The German word Satz may also refer to a composition's movement or the setting of music, e.g. as monodic, heterophonic, momophonic, polyphonic, or set (arranged) as a fugue or a canon.
