Question

Explain briefly why genres are broader in scope than forms?

Answer 1

Forms have hierarchical relationship to subforms. This hierarchical scheme means narrower and/or broader relationship between a form and its subform which can be displayed as a tree structure.  Because of this, the form is always broader in scope than any of its subforms which make genres broader in scope.

Answer 2

Answer:

A genre accounts for all different kinds of forms and is grouped by separating them into similar styles. However, forms don't account for the style of music. Forms are how the song is structured and the sections as to where it's divided.
