    The Romantic Era 1820-1900 1 Historical Themes Science Nationalism Art 2 Science Increased role of science in defining how people saw life Charles Darwin-The Origin of the Species Freud 3 Nationalism Rise of European nationalism Napoleonic ideas created patriotic fervor Many revolutions and attempts at revolutions. Many areas of Europe (especially Italy and Central Europe) struggled to free themselves from foreign control 4 Art Art came to be appreciated for its aesthetic worth Program-music that serves an extra-musical purpose Absolute-music for the sake and beauty of the music itself 5 Musical Context Increased interest in nature and the supernatural The natural world was considered a source of mysterious powers. Romantic composers gravitated toward supernatural texts and stories 6 Listening #1 Berlioz: Symphonie Fantastique (4th mvmt) Pg 323-325 CD 5/30 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwCuFaq2L3U 7 The Rise of Program Music Music began to be used to tell stories, or to imply meaning beyond the purely musical. Composers found ways to make their musical ideas represent people, things, and dramatic situations as well as emotional states and even philosophical ideas. 8 Art Forms Close relationship Literature among all the art Shakespeare forms Poe Bronte Composers drew Drama inspiration from other Schiller fine arts Hugo Art Goya Constable Delacroix 9 Nationalism and Exoticism Composers used music as a tool for highlighting national identity. Instrumental composers (such as Bedrich Smetana) made reference to folk music and national images Operatic composers (such as Giuseppe Verdi) set stories with strong patriotic undercurrents. Composers took an interest in the music of various ethnic groups and incorporated it into their own music.

  • Vida De Anton Bruckner
    CICLO BRUCKNER ENERO 1996 Fundación Juan March CICLO BRUCKNER ENERO 1996 ÍNDICE Pág. Presentación 3 Cronología básica 5 Programa general 7 Introducción general, por Angel-Fernando Mayo 11 Notas al programa: Primer concierto 17 Segundo concierto 21 Textos de las obras cantadas 25 Tercer concierto 31 Participantes 35 Antón Bruckner es hoy uno de los sinfonistas más prestigiosos del siglo XIX. Ya son páginas de historia de la música su ferviente admiración por Wagnery las diatribas que Hanslicky los partidarios de Brahms mantuvieron entonces respecto a su arte sinfónico, y un capítulo importante de la historia de la difusión musical lo ocupa la lenta recepción de su obra hasta el triunfo incuestionable de los últimos años. Pero Bruckner es también autor de un buen número de obras corales, con o sin acompañamiento de órgano, y de muy pocas pero significativas obras de cámara. También escribió para órgano -aunque siempre añoraremos más y más ambiciosas obras en quien fue organista profesional-, algo para piano y muy pocas canciones. En este ciclo, que no puede acercarse al mundo sinfónico, hemos acogido la mayor parte de su obra camerística centrándola en su importante Quinteto para cuerda, y una buena antología de su obra coral, desde la temprana Misa para el Jueves Santo de 1844 hasta ejemplos de su estilo final en 1885, en la época de su explosión sinfónica. Más de cuarenta años de actividad musical que ayudará al buen aficionado a completar la imagen de uno de los músicos más importantes del posromanticismo. Para no dejar aislado el Cuarteto de cuerda de 1862, hemos programado uno de los de su colega y contrincante Brahms.
