the difference is that a romantic poem will be about love towards people while classical will be more old fashioned and be about other things!!! romantic poems are more towards people in love and great to be read whilst in deep love with another person. idiot... do not listen to that at all.... The romantic era was not about love at all. In fact it had nothing to do with romance of the conventional kind. It was imaginative and more related to democracy and nature than anything else. Had relations to human life, and was highly philosophical. It was most definitely not about love. The Classical age on the other hand was the complete opposite to the romantic age in some respects. It had no real interest in nature as it exists naturally. Satire and realism was present, as well as a strong union with politics. It was highly critical, unimaginative and intellectual as opposed to the spontaneity of the romantic age.

What characteristics of Beethoven's music bridge the gap between the Classical and Romantic eras?
There are many ways in which Beethoven can be seen as both a classical and romantic composer. He is seen as classical in many respects. A quote from Charles Rosen, The Classical style reads "Beethoven enlarged the limits of the classical style beyond the previous conceptions, but never changed its essential structure or abandoned it, as did the composers who followed him. In the other fundamental aspects of his musical language, as well as in the key relations within the single movement, Beethoven may be said to have remained within the classical framework,even while using it in radical and original ways" His symphony no 6, Pastoral, is one of the main pieces that bridges many of the gaps between the classical and romantic era. It is classical in that it is rooted in a tonic-dominant relationship, and includes fugue, cannon and theme and variation. However it can be seen as romantic in that it takes a lot of influence from natural and the natural world. Beethoven was coached and definitely influenced by Haydn, a renowned nature lover for a year. In the Classical period, music did not tend to pertain to this type of influence. The Pastoral symphony however is based largely around nature. It is also programmatic, a distinctive element of romantic writing. By 1808, the time of the pastoral symphony, the romantic movement in poetry was in full swing. Instead of the standard classical 4 movements, the pastoral has 5. The 9th symphony seems to be the main piece of writing that crosses the bridge between the classical and romantic periods, and is seen as the missing link bringing the classical period fully to an end.
