What composer is considered a bridge composer from the classical era to the romantic era?
Ludwig van Beethoven
What composer is the main link between the classical and the romantic periods?
Maybe Beethoven because he lived from 1770-1827.
What made Mozart and beethoven famous?
Mozart and Beethoven were the greatest composers of their time. Both were renowned child prodigies, pianists, improvisers, and composers who contributed widely to orchestral, piano, and chamber music genres. Mozart was a more early classical composer and Beethoven later. Beethoven was essentially the bridge between the Classical and Romantic periods of music.
Which musical era is Beethoven's music from?
The 18th century was called the Baroque period, and Vienna was a Baroque city. But in his case, he wrote music in that era and in the classical period also. Two eras, one composer.
What was Handel's part in the Romantic period?
Handel died in 1759, at least fifty years before the transition to the Romantic period. However, as one of the great Baroque composers, Handel certainly had an influence on later composers. Handel was more experimental when it came to the use of dynamics, and the Romantic era composers capitalised on the expressive use of changing dynamics. Beethoven, the composer considered to be the "bridge" between the Classical and Romantic periods, was certainly influenced by Handel's style of composition, and it is considered that Beethoven's later compositions were reminiscent of Handel's style of counterpoint. Beethoven was heard to observe that Handel was the greatest composer who ever lived, so it is natural that he incorporated some of Handel's style in his own compositions. Handel did not compose the simpler melodies that many of his contemporaries did. As well, he scored more complex instrumentation in his oratorios and operas than his contemporaries. Romantic music was known for its extravagant orchestration.
