Late Romantic Period Composers

<< < (2/15) > >>

Trollstormur:
wagner. fo' realz.

Bastardous Bassist:
He's basically responsible for the second Viennese school (Schoenberg, Webern and Berg), and they're practically solely responsible for the entire modern period of music, or at least all of the maximalist stuff.

Borondir:
Ooooh, late Romantic, I love me some Mahler symphonies.

I listen to tons of opera, and recently a lot of it is coming from the late Romantic period. Wagner is always good (right now I'm discovering Der fliegende Hollander) and I love Strauss (Richard that is) and Puccini as well.

I've also been listening to a lot of Mussorgsky, especially Boris Godunov(one of the best operatic bass roles ever, and I'm a bass, so that's cool) and St. John's Night on Bald Mountain.  

Oh and also Gounod's Faust.

Gott sei dank.  For a second there, I thought I might have to never take your opinion seriously ever again.

JLM:
You can't even talk about late romantic without mentioning Debussy.  He IS the transition between late romantic and modern.
