The Help-Siao-Graduate Experiment

Hey, thanks for taking a couple of minutes to help my experiment out! This'll just take a few minutes-- there's only 6 questions! I am doing an experiment to understand how emotions are conveyed in music.

Listen to the variations of the same pieces, and tell me what emotion each piece may or may not convey.
Optionally, please add any comments or impressions you hear on each piece.
