Romanticism
From HitStory, the pop encyclopedia of School of Rock · Genre
In Romanticism, music became the expression of personal feeling, of nature, dreams and longing. Franz Schubert wrote hundreds of songs for voice and piano; in Erlkönig (1815), the piano gallops like a horse beneath the father, the child and the deadly Erl-King. Frédéric Chopin and Robert Schumann wrote short piano pieces, each with its own atmosphere, such as Chopin's nocturnes and Schumann's Kinderszenen. The piano became the instrument of the drawing room and the concert hall.
Listening
Listening tip. Hear how the piano in Erlkönig keeps playing the same fast, hammering notes, like the hooves of a horse in the night.
