Yet, beneath the surface he is vulnerable to a variety emotions and feelings that are conflicting him. To illustrate this, the play will use the aria and da capio aria to highlight the overall mood as well as atmosphere. The way that this is accomplished is through having a singer and an orchestra that using a variety of sounds in different tempos. The basic idea with this approach is to have: the tones of the singer and the changes in the music highlight the actual scene. During situations, when the person will have lighter tones in their voice and the background music is soft. This is indicating that the scene is somewhat melancholy. While during those situations, when there are changes in the tones and tempos, this is illustrating the emotions that the characters are going through. This is designed to help the audience...
