What music/song would best I have a project about the
romantic literary time period,
and I think it would be great
if I could include some music
that best corresponds with the
mood...but I'm having trouble
finding any music or songs
like that. It would be great
if you could help!

Tchaikovsky would be your best best, he wrote classical music during the romantic period, and it goes very well with romantic literature. |

Tchaikovsky is indeed one of the masters of the Romantic period, and you could use music from one of his ballets--say, Swan Lake or Romeo and Juliet--if you want an orchestra sound and a lot of emotion. Another good choice for a sweeping orchestral sound would be a symphony by Brahms. If you want less instrumentation, try a piano concerto by either Chopin or Liszt. On the other extreme, the grand "showmen" of the period were Verdi, Wagner, and Berlioz. Try listening to part of La Symphonie Fantastique (Berlioz), Tristan and Isolde (Wagner) or Aida (Verdi). |
