Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

The piano part (Schumann: In the Lovely Month of May, from A Poet's Love) is played at a slow pace (tempo) with a freely moving melodic line. This music sounds indecisive, like it's wandering through many pitches, moving between major and minor keys.

At the end of the first stanza, the vocalist sings of his love rising up. Which best describes the shape of the singer's melody (the contour) at the end of the stanza?

Answer:

the singer's melody ascends

Step-by-step explanation:

At the end of the first stanza, the singer's melody ascends. This is directly related to the relationship between the moment of history that is being narrated through music, with the impact that one seeks to create on the listener. This creates a harmony between the elements of creation of the work, managing to reach the listener in several points of its perception.
