The Romantic music era was the predominant music era of the 19th century. It directly followed and grew out of the classical music era. Romantic composers expanded on the forms and structures established in the previous era, resulting in longer musical forms such as cyclic form and program music.[1] Technology improved the quality of instruments, including the addition of valves to brass instruments and an improved piano.[2] Composers used increased expressiveness, often using terms such as dolce (sweetly) or maestoso (majestically) as instructions in their scores.[3] They experimented with tonality, including increased use of chromaticism and dissonance.[4] Nationalist music also became prominent in the Romantic era, with composers such as Glinka in Russia and Sibelius in Finland drawing on folk music from their native lands for inspiration.[5]
Toward the end of the Romantic era, a musical movement called impressionist music began. Composers such as Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel tended to focus on atmosphere or mood instead of emotion in their compositions.[6] Although sometimes seen as a reaction to romanticism, impressionism is sometimes considered an extension of the romantic era.[7] Thus, some impressionist composers are listed here.
