Synopsis

This book examines the emergence of the symphony during the 19th century, a period of both artistic growth and political unrest in Europe. The author traces the development of the symphony from its roots in the 18th century to its full flowering in the Romantic era, exploring the influence of composers such as Berlioz, Mendelssohn, and Liszt. The book also discusses the impact of nationalism on the symphony, as composers sought to express their cultural heritage through music, and examines the broader social and political context in which these works were created. Ultimately, the book argues that the symphony in the 19th century was a powerful force for both artistic and political expression, reflecting the complex and tumultuous spirit of the age.
