My upcoming english project requires that my group and I act out a scene from Macbeth along with music ans sound effects. We will be presenting Act IV scene ii. Can you give me some suggestions for music that fits the mood for that scene? (or several pieces of music for different parts of the scene.
This Christmas give the gift of language. Check Rosetta Stone for Christmas for all those who are trying to learn a new language.

hmmm… i really cant remember much of macbeth from high school but would beethoven’s symphony no. 5 do for some parts of the scene???
It depends on the scene that you do, bu Beethoven’s Fifth doesn’t really work for me. Macbeth, the entire play, is shrouded in mists and rain and everything is in turmoil. It should be something kind of hurried sounding nd prefereably in a minor key. You might want to try the opera Macbet, but I forget who the composer is. I remember in one of my piano books an eerie piece with the four lines about “methought that I did see the wood … to move” and it was creepy sounding.
