	Encyclopedia: Romantic music
		The era of Romantic music is defined as the period of European classical music that runs roughly from the early 1800s to the first decade of the 20th century, as well as music written according to the norms and styles of that period.
		Romantic music is related to Romantic movements in literature, art, and philosophy, though the conventional periods used in musicology are now very different from their counterparts in the other arts, which define "romantic" as running from the 1780s to the 1840s.
		Music was regarded as a quasi-religious experience, and the "Philharmonic" society became part of a concert as a time for deep engagement in the music, in contrast to the less formal manners of previous concert life.

	Essentials of Music - Composers
		"Music embodies feeling without forcing it to contend and combine with thought, as it is forced in most arts and especially in the art of words.
		If music has one advantage over the other media through which a person can represent the impressions of the soul, it owes this to its supreme capacity to make each inner impulse audible without the assistance of reason...
		His early talent in music was rewarded by the support of a group of Hungarian nobles who subsidized his studies in Paris.

	Polish Music Journal 4.1.01 - Paderewski: Tempo Rubato
		Prior to his arguments, English-speaking music writers believed that performing in tempo rubato necessarily involves the use of "compensation" in the form of accelerating the second part of a given measure if the first part is slowed down, so that the whole measure remains of the same duration.
		It is interesting to note the similarity of Paderewski's views on rhythm in music as necessarily "organic" and irregular to the ideas expressed by French composers, Claude Debussy and Olivier Messiaen, both of whom emphasized the unpredictable irregularity of natural rhythms and their importance for composition.
		In the course of the dramatic developments of a musical composition, the initial themes change their character, consequently rhythm changes also, and, in conformity with that character, it has to be energetic or languishing, crisp or elastic, steady or capricious.

	Reg Smith's Music Box Restoration Work
		Cylinder music boxes, while musically fabulous, had the major drawback of being only able to perform the tunes which had been "pinned" to the cylinder originally.
		Thus, once a family had heard the 4, 6, 8, or 12 tunes their machine's cylinder could perform, dozens of times, it obviously would get tiresome, and the machines would often be relegated to closets or at least not played mushc anymore.
		When a customer sends an old music box to me for repair, it is typically covered with rust, corrosion, and all manner of dirt; an accumulation of more than a century.

		America's music is still evolving today and will obviously continue to do so as new artists compose and new songs are recorded.
		One of the absolute major pivotal points in American music was the introduction of the phonograph or talking machine.
		The Italian opera singer/vocalist Enrico Caruso had been the greatest selling "Recording Artist" and his fame was not outdone until the very first recordings of jass/jazz were released to the public on a large scale in 1917 by the Original Dixieland Jass Band on both Victor and Columbia Records.

		During the late 1830s and 1840s, the full flowering of this musical generation was presented to the public, including the music of Robert Schumann, Giacomo Meyerbeer and the young Guiseppi Verdi.
		The establishment of conservatories and universities created centers were musicians could make stable careers teaching others to play, rather than being entrepreneurs relying on their own resources.

	THE KING OF LIGHT MUSIC ERIC COATES (1886-1957) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Coates was not perhaps one of the most prolific of British light music composers, except maybe as a producer of songs.
		Coates' work showed the hand of an experienced master craftsman; it may readily be deduced that he was for many years an orchestral player in one of the finest ensembles in the land.
		But many other British light music composers were excellent writers, too, and their work is also melodically attractive, Coates' music, however, is not merely melodically attractive: it is memorably melodically attractive, pointed as it is by driving rhythms.

	Regina Music Box - History and value by art historian Dr. Lori
		In the 19th Century, the invention of the original cylinder music boxes occurred which consisted of a brass cylinder and numerous steel pins that plucked a tuned steel music comb as the cylinder rotated with the aid of a clockwork motor.
		The tuned music combs have teeth that must be tuned after a piece has been moved or relocated to a particular location.
		On most Regina music boxes, one (single) or two (double) combs are mounted under one radius of the tune sheet, and thus move across about half the case width.

		Brahms is an important figure in German music, standing almost as a rock of classicism in the onrushing stream of the new styles created by Wagner, Liszt and others.

		His study of the music of earlier composers, including those of the Renaissance, added to the more conservative elements of his music.

		Wonderfully illustrated in color, this book sheds much light on the music of the era because African Americans were an essential element in many aspects of popular music, and, of course, jazz, which was one of the popular musics of the day.
		This goody describes American popular and show music during the period; Jazz was one of this forms and interacted in a number of ways with the other music.
		The problem is that these are all essentially sheet music, potentially useful as resources, but not at all useful for band playing, especially since they rarely reflect the music as it is commonly played.

	Franz Liszt
		He was taught the piano by his father and then Czerny (Vienna, 1822-3), establishing himself as a remarkable concert artist by the age of 12.
		Not all the piano music is free of bombast but among the arrangements, the symphonic transcriptions (notably of Berlioz, Beethoven and Schubert) are often faithful and ingenious, the operatic fantasias (on Norma and Ernani, for example) more than mere salon pieces.
		Although he failed in his aim to revolutionize liturgical music, Liszt did create in his psalm settings, Missa solemnis and the oratorio Christus some intensely dramatic and moving choral music, successful in his lifetime and well suited to concert performance.

	Giuseppe Verdi
		In 1832 he was sent to Milan, but was refused a place at the conservatory and studied with Vincenzo Lavigna, composer and former La Scala musician.
		He might have taken a post as organist at Monza in 1835, but returned to Busseto where he was passed over as maestro di cappella but became town music master in 1836 and married Margherita Barezzi, his patron's daughter (their two children died in infancy).
		Verdi was ready to give up opera; his works of 1873 are a string quartet and the vivid, appealing Requiem in honour of the poet Manzoni, given in 1874-5, in Milan (San Marco and La Scala, aptly), Paris, London and Vienna.
