German Romanticism is a rich and expressive music genre that emerged in the late 18th to early 19th centuries, characterized by deep emotional content, expansive melodies, and an emphasis on individual expression. Building upon the classical traditions of Mozart and Haydn, composers like Ludwig van Beethoven began to infuse their compositions with a new level of personal and emotional depth. This genre's narrative quality often sought to evoke the sublime beauty of nature, the complexities of the human psyche, and the profound themes found in literature and philosophy. Composers such as Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss expanded the harmonic language, while Johannes Brahms and Robert Schumann honed in on intimate lyricism through innovative uses of form and harmony. Together, these composers forged a lasting legacy, deeply influencing the trajectory of Western classical music.
