Biographies

Amid a background of wars and revolution, the 19th century produced many of the world’s best loved composers including Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin and Tchaikovsky. Discover Music of the Romantic Era charts the course of music through these turbulent but exhilarating times with more than 20 music excerpts. Lighthearted but authoritative, it tells the fascinating, often scandalous life stories of the 19th century’s greatest composers and describes how they created musical history.
