You should have learn about Binary and Ternary Form when you are in Primary 3 or 4 using the First Step.
This is a quick revision:
The words Binary and Ternary simply mean two and three and refers to music which is in two or three distinct sections. If you hum the tune to Twinkle, twinkle little star in your head (this is calledinternalising the music) you should be able to distinguish the three sections. If we were to give each section a letter, it would look like this:
A Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are.
B Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky.
A Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are.
B Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky.
A Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are.
So music in ternary form is can also be called ABA form, whereas binary form is simply AB!
Is theSingapore's national anthem in ABA form or AB form?
