Episode 432: The Romantics

Romanticism was an artistic, literary, intellectual and musical movement that originated in Europe toward the end of the 18th century. The movement emphasized intense emotion as an authentic source of the aesthetic experience, especially that of the sublime beauty of nature. The resulting music of the era was an opposition to the structural constraints of the classical era, with emotion finding its way into musical expression for its own sake.
