What I think the musical elements bring into this music piece:
Structure :-
The use of repetition in this music piece is a soft tune playing over the pitch of the music.
Texture :-
Firstly the piano is playing on a high note, then there's a tension sound and the drums come in, the piano is still playing on a high note, then a squeeky noise comes in, then the piano goes lower and is in use of repetition, then the squeeky noise is on a high note to build tension, the drums bring in a noise of a heart beat and objects bashing each other.
Timbre :-
The instruments that are playing are piano, violin and I think the drums are playing when the pitch goes really high.
Rhythm, Metre, Tempo & Duration :-
When the piano is repeated of its sound it creates rhythm and the duration of the instruments are around 10 seconds to build tension to the phantasmagoria/horror music. The piano is repeated throughout the music piece.
Pitch :-
The music piece does have a pitch because it starts of low with the piano and then builds tension with a high pitch squeeky noise and brings in the violin in a sudden way. After the tense part, the music goes back to low to make the sound effects more creepy.
Harmony :-
There isn't a lot of harmony in the music piece because once one instrument is done playing another one starts playing. I think there is only harmony in one part of the music to give a tense effect therefore 2-3 instruments would play all together which are the violin, piano and drums.
Dynamics :-
The dynamics in this music piece is when the sound is very soft and then goes very loud to frighten the audience and give them a shock of horror sound. I think it goes from soft to loud to soft again just to keep an 'intense' effect on the audience's mind.
Melody :-
For the melody of this music piece I heard the instruments playing one by one and towards the end of the music piece I think I heard a little bit of the xylophone playing to bring a creepy/freaky noise to the main tense part of the music piece.
