	Romantic Period Music [M.Tevfik DORAK]
		Thus, a fertilization of music by poetry, fiction, philosophy and painting took place, and with it was associated a further fertilization by the spirit of nationalism.
		In Romantic music, long sections -even an entire movement- may continue as one unbroken rhythmic pattern, with the monotony and the cumulative effect of an incantation.
		The Romantic era was the golden age of the virtuoso.

	Chicago Symphony Orchestra - Glossary - Romanticism
		Musical labeling is a notoriously sticky business, and any label that's supposed to apply to almost a century of music and to dozens of different composers — composers as diverse as Schubert and Sibelius, Berlioz and Puccini, Wagner and Tchaikovsky —; is bound to be exceedingly broad, if not completely arbitrary.
		Among the musical forms developed in the nineteenth century as direct offspring of Romantic ideals and principles are the character piece for piano, the symphonic poem, and the song cycle.
		This is the “romance” from which the word Romantic derives, and to which it owes its connotations of unbounded imagination and passion.

	Classical Periods - the development of classical music through the ages
		In the later centuries of this period, formal musical traditions were being incubated in the catholic monasteries of the time, and the church was to play a major role in the subsequent development of music.
		The creativity of this period was given further impetus by the invention of the printing press which brought standardisation to the previously hand-written forms of musical notation, and allowed many more copies to be made.
		The great composers of this period were Carl Philipp Emmanuel Bach, Johann Christian Bach, Johann Stamitz, Franz Joseph Haydn, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Luigi Boccherini and Christoph von Gluck with others such as Franz Schubert and especially Ludwig van Beethoven being seen as transitional and indeed instrumental in bringing about the Romantic period.

	THE EPIC SYMPHOMIES OF THE 19TH AND EARLY 20TH CENTURIES
		What most people call “classical” music tends to include all so called “serious” music: the baroque, the classical, the romantic and the so-called modern works; most of it was composed for concert performances, typically using strings, woodwinds, brasses and percussion.
		The epic romantic symphony remained a major musical genre, becoming, in the popular mind, the archetypical “classical” music, until “modern” atonality and dissonance began to dominate.
		Johann S. Bach lived and died long before the advent of the Romantic Movement in orchestral music, but his musical output (most of which was liturgical) achieved a sublimity, power and elegance of expression never since equaled.

	The Music Chamber - The Romantic Period
		For the more "progressive" composers of the day, chamber music was an awkward form; on one hand, it lacked the personal expressiveness of the then-popular solo piano piece, but on the other hand it did not offer the glowing colors and overpowering sound of the full orchestra.
		Because of this, amateur chamber players were generally unable to play the music of the day, and chamber music moved out of the homes of enthusiasts and into the concert halls.
		Atop the crowded list of composers there are Franz Schubert, Robert Schumann, and Felix Mendelssohn from the early Romantic Period; from the later part of the period we have Johannes Brahms, Peter Tchaikovsky, and Antonin Dvorak.

	Romantic period - The era of Romantic music is defined as the period...
		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.

		Although the word "romantic" is now usually used to mean "something related to love", "romantic music" as spoken about by musicologists and academics is not necessarily about this and does not always sound like what would nowadays be thought of as "romantic" in the general sense.
		Romantic music analogized music to poetry and to rhapsodic and narrative structures, and at the same time created a more systematic basis for teaching the composing and performing of concert music.
		In literature the "Romantic" period is often said to begin in the 1770's or 1780's with a movement known as "storm and struggle", in Germany.

		MUSI 4350 - Music Traits of the Romantic Period
		In a very general sense, all art may be said to be romantic; for though it may take its materials from actual life, it transforms them and thus creates a new world which is necessarily to a greater or lesser degree remote from the everyday world requiring a subjective, and individual interpretation by the public.
		Program music becomes a staple of the concert fare and incidents of history, or abstractions of poetry are often the starting point for a musical composition.
