A melodic sequence occurs when a motive repeats at a higher or lower pitch. Melodic sequences are used primarily for elaboration and expansion of a melody.
This excerpt includes two melodic sequences back-to-back, the first descending in pitch and the second ascending. The excerpt is taken from the Finale of "Mythologische Operette" by Michael Haydn.
