1 You are a reporter for HUM112: All the News You Need and your assignment is to observe two foreign and strange styles of music. One style of music is called “Classical (please use the historian’s definition of classical music)” and the other is called “Romantic” (please use the historian’s definition of romantic music). Each has certain defining characteristics and instrumentation that was different from the other’s.
Select one example of a composer who best represents “Classical’ music and one who best represents “Romantic” music. Choose one of each and listen to the YouTube performance of their work and then answer these questions:
How and where did the composer of each style perform their works? How did each make a living? Were their approaches the same or different? Was one more successful than the other?
