Style: The word "Baroque" describes a very decorative style of art and architecture. Composers: Bach, Handel, and Telemann are famous Baroque composers. A gavotte by Telemann is included in this collection. Telemann lived in Hamburg, Germany, where he was the town music director. The Keyboard: The harpsichord, clavichord, and organ were the keyboard instruments used during the Baroque period. The piano was not invented until the early 1700s. (The student may wish to explore playing the Baroque pieces on the harpsichord setting of a digital keyboard.) CLASSICAL Dates: Approximately 1750-1830, the time of the French and American Revolutions, Thomas Jefferson, and the rise and fall of Napoleon. Men still wore wigs and lace, bowed politely, and danced the minuet. Style: The music of the Classical period is generally elegant and melodic. Composers and artists preferred simplicity to the grandeur of the Baroque. Composers: Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven were the major composers of the Classical period. This book includes pieces by Haydn (who worked at the splendid palace of Prince Esterhazy) and Diabelli (a friend of Beethoven). The Keyboard: The early piano was known as the fortepiano. It became popular because the performer could play the keys with a loud (forte) or soft (piano) touch. ROMANTIC Dates: Approximately 1830-1910, a time of industrial growth, the Civil War in the United States, and Queen Victoria's reign over the British Empire. Style: The music of the Romantic period became more emotional and personal. Pieces often expressed an event or story, such as "The Hunt" and "Tarantella" in this collection. Composers: Featured in this collection are Gurlitt, who taught at the Hamburg Conservatory; Schytte, a Danish pianist who settled in Germany; and Lynes, a prominent composer in Boston who studied at the Leipzig Conservatory. The Keyboard: The pianoforte (now shortened to piano) gained power and size with the use of steel and brass. CONTEMPORARY Dates: 1900 to the present, the time of the automobile, the phonograph, sending man to the moon, and the invention of the computer. Style: Modern music is wide and varied. Characteristics include dissonant harmonies, exciting rhythms, and a wide range of dynamics. "The Busy Machine" and "On the Ocean Floor" are examples of the varied sounds of 20th century music. Composers: During the 20th century, women composers and American composers began to achieve recognition. It is an exciting time for musicians as today's composers draw from the wealth of the past and set new trends for the future. The Keyboard: Today's piano is similar to that of the Romantic period. The invention of synthesizers and digital keyboards has given new sounds for composers to explore.
