Ludwig van Beethoven # 1
(Bonn, Germany, December 16, 1770 [1] - Vienna, Austria, March 26, 1827) was a composer, conductor and pianist German. His musical legacy was extended chronologically from the classical period until the beginning of musical Romanticism.
Considered the last great representative of Viennese classicism (after Christoph Willibald Gluck, Joseph Haydn and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart), Beethoven managed to transcend the music of Romanticism, motivating influence it in a variety of musical works over nineteenth century. His art is expressed in many genres and even symphonies were the main source of his international popularity, its impact turned out to be more important in his works for piano and chamber music.
His output includes piano gender (32 sonatas for piano), chamber (16 string quartets, 7 trios, 10 sonatas for violin and piano), vocal (lieder and opera Fidelio), concertante (5 concerts for piano and orchestra, one for violin and orchestra) and orchestra (9 symphonies, overtures, etc.). and the cycle of nine symphonies, including the Third Symphony, also called Eroica, [2] in E ♭ major, Fifth Symphony, in C minor and the Ninth Symphony in D minor (whose music the fourth movement is based on the Ode to Joy).
From apprentice to master
In 1792 the Elector of Bonn back to finance a trip to Vienna, where he remained the rest of his life writing, trying to achieve social recognition to himself through art and terrible suffering a particularly bad for him: deafness. Here, Beethoven took lessons in composition with Joseph Haydn, Johann Georg counterpoint with Johann Baptist Schenk Albrechtsberger and lyrical and Antonio Salieri. [5]
During this period he had several musical duels with other pianists. The first was in 1792 during a trip to the court orchestra, which played with Franz Sterkel, performing works by the composer. In 1800, the famous duel took place (in the palace of Lobkowitz) which Steibelt Daniel challenged him to that were playing together. On that occasion, Beethoven took scores of a work of modifying it (at the same time that was playing) with such grace that Steibelt said he would never Vienna while Beethoven lived there and left the city, settling in Paris. [5]
At 24 he published his first important work: three trios for piano, violin and cello (Opus 1) and the following year in 1795, made his first public concert in Vienna as a professional composer, in which he played his own works. That same year he proposed marriage to Magdalena Willman but they refused. Later, he toured Prague, Dresden, Leipzig, Berlin and Budapest. In 1796 he published three piano sonatas (Opus 2). The court, the nobility and the church welcomed Viennese Beethoven's music and became a patron and protector of the young musician. Disputes were common in these strata and the composer, because of the strong and impulsive character of the musician, but this win made him great respect in the city. Among his patrons were personalities such as Prince Karl von Lichnowsky and Baron Gottfried van Swieten. [5] At that time, broke away from Haydn that did not match the musically but who, despite this, he spent three trios.
In 1800, Beethoven again organized a concert in Vienna which made the presentation of his First Symphony. His musical activity was increasing and also taught piano among young aristocrats, with which romances remained sporadic. The following year, Beethoven admits worried about his increasing deafness Wegeler his friend. In Heiligenstadt, the following year he wrote the famous Heiligenstadt Testament, in which he expresses his despair and anger at the injustice of a musician could become deaf, something he could not conceive or bear. She even consider suicide, but the music and its strong conviction that he could make a big contribution to the genre were to go ahead. In the will he wrote he knew he still had a lot of music to discover, explore and achieve. [5]
His original music, light and fresh, changed to become epic, turbulent, highly consistent with the revolutionary times living Europe. They were years in which European monarchical powers had allied to defeat the revolutionary France. In a brilliant campaign in northern Italy, where the Austrian army was defeated, became notorious Napoleon Bonaparte, who became an icon among progressives. From this period Piano Sonata No. 8, Pathetique call and Piano Sonata No. 14, called Moonlight. His Third Symphony, called the Eroica, was originally written in "memory of a great man," Bonaparte, who was seen then as a liberator of his people. When he declared himself Emperor, Beethoven was furious and violently erased Napoleon's name on the first page of the score. The Eroica was finally released on 7 April 1805. [5

With only five years and composed musical works and their performances were appreciated by the aristocracy and European royalty.

Chopin as teacher
Chopin chose the job of a living teacher on grounds of necessity: his compositions negligible sums meant him and offered very few concerts, and often the benefit of a charity. [10] Even though many students were in the Parisian aristocracy (George Sand referred ironically most of these fans are women, to the "magnificent countess ', the' delicious marquis", the "students idolatrous") also had a fortnight's worth of students who did not belong to the aristocracy
Chopin was not impressed by this world, that is transparency in the following excerpt from a letter he wrote to a childhood friend in January 1833 that shows him as a lucid observer of the environment in which it moves. I am introduced to the great world, among ambassadors, princes, ministers, and I do not wonder why they have not done anything to enter. But he said that to me is a must appear there, because there is said, is good taste. In the event you own a great talent, if you have been heard in England or the embassy of Austria. You play better if Vaudemont princess, the last of the Montmorency, has protected you. I can not really say "protect you" for this old lady has died eight days ago [...][ 16]
Regarding the teaching method, Chopin was not a trained teacher but a creator of music, turned to teaching "without any preconceived idea" and did not follow pre-established system, adapted his teaching to the student's skills and, when student deserved, prolonged school (established in three quarters of an hour) to two to three hours. He practiced this profession of teacher, which pushes the necessity rather than a vocation (which was the composer), conscientiously, and courteously (only belied by frequent outbursts of anger when the student is lost

Franz Joseph Haydn #5
From apprentice to master teachers
Franz Joseph Haydn (pronounced [jo ː zɛf haɪdn̩]) [1] (Rohrau, near Vienna, Austria, March 31, 1732 - Vienna, May 31, 1809) was an Austrian composer. It is one of the leading representatives of the classical period, besides being known as the "Father of the Symphony" and "Father of the string quartet" thanks to their important contributions to both genders. Also contributed to the development of instrumental piano trio and the evolution of sonata form. [2] [3]
He lived all his life in Austria and developed much of his career as a court musician for the wealthy and aristocratic Esterhazy family from Hungary. Isolated from other composers and trends in music until the last leg of his life, was, he said, "forced to become original." [4] At the time of his death, was one of the most famous composers in Europe. [5 ]
He was the brother of Michael, who was also considered a good composer, and Johann Evangelist, a tenor. Had a close friendship with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and was professor of Ludwig van Beethoven. The full list of the composer's works can be found in the catalog Hoboken, management system created by Anthony van Hoboken.
Structure and characteristics of his music
A key feature Haydn's music is the development of larger structures rather than very short and simple motifs, often derived from standard accompanying figures. The music is often quite formally concentrated and important part of a movement could develop quickly. [46]
Haydn's work was instrumental in developing what is called sonata form. However, the practice differs in some points from those of Mozart and Beethoven, his younger contemporaries who also excelled in this form of composition. Haydn was particularly fond of called "exposure single issue" where the music that establishes the dominant key is similar or identical to the opening theme. Haydn also differs from Mozart and Beethoven in his recapitulation sections, where Haydn often rearranges the order of the items compared with exposure and use a broad thematic development. [47]
Haydn's formal inventiveness also led him to integrate the leak in the classical style and to enrich the rondo form with more cohesive tonal logic. Haydn was the leading exponent of the double variation form (variations on two alternating themes, which are often major and less versions of each other).
Perhaps more than any other composer, the music of Haydn is known for its humor. [48] The most famous example is the sudden sharp line in the slow movement of his Symphony Surprise. Many other musical jokes include numerous false Haydn end (for example, in the quartets Op. 33 No. 2 and Op 50. N. º 3) and the remarkable rhythmic illusion of the third movement trio op. 50 n. 1.

Antonio Lucio Vivaldi #6
Antonio Lucio Vivaldi (Venice, March 4, 1678 - Vienna, July 28, 1741) was a composer and musician of the late Baroque, one of the pinnacles of Baroque Western music and world music. His expertise is reflected in having founded the genre of the concert, the most important of his time.
He was nicknamed il prete rosso (the red priest ") for being a priest (Catholic), and red. He composed around 770 works, among which include 477 concerts and 46 operas. It is particularly well known, popular level, as the author of a series of concertos for violin and orchestra The Four Seasons. This work is part of the cycle of his opus 8 "Il cimento dell'armonia and dell'inventione" has assumed paramount importance to break the paradigm of the Concerto Solli, drawn by the same Vivaldi. Until then, Solli Concerto concert was a solo instrument that had the full weight of the melody and composition, and the rest of the orchestra was limited to support exercise according to the rules of harmony.
However, The four seasons are a violin concertos in which the orchestra does not act as mere background accompaniment, but as a relief, not merely accompany the soloist, but it helps the development of the work. This will influence later in the concert of Handel and especially Bach, as it would study diligently Vivaldi concert, and would be from the original innovations Bach Vivaldi concert refine the concept. Thus, with the musical form of the Concerto Solli be achieved definitively define what might be called the modern concerto solo instrument, establishing a perfect balance between soloist and orchestra, the concert without reaching the point of having to be considered a Concerto Grosso in establishing a dialogue between orchestra and soloists in a way that the roles of soloist and accompanist are exchanged among a small group of instruments (the violin, sometimes a single instrument), which usually acts as soloist, and orchestra (the ripieno). At this point, however, was a process that led to Corelli and Giuseppe Torelli Arcangello the cycles where Vivaldi arguably instrumental experience with this genre. It is worth noting for example the cycle of Opus 3, which receives a large domain in its concept and concerto grosso concerto with soli, where the best known are the Opus 3 in A minor N6 and N11 Opus3 in D minor, which shows a wonderful example of escape in four parts (2 violins, viola, cello and continuo). Thus, The Four Seasons Concerto represent the perfect Solli, to the extent that significantly affects the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, and it inexorably Haydn, and Haydn, in turn, to become master of, among others, Beethoven, extends Vivaldi influenced more musicians but probably would have known the work of Vivaldi.

Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky #7
Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky (Russian: Игорь Фёдорович Стравинский) (Oranienbaum, June 17, 1882 - New York, April 6, 1971) was a composer and conductor Russian, one of the most significant and important musicians of the twentieth century.
His long life, died when he went to meet the 89 years you could get a variety of musical styles. Their protests are justified against those who branded him as a musician of the future: "It's absurd. I do not live in the past or the future. I'm in the present." In his mind made up a lot of classic styles such as tackling several primitivism, neoclassicism and serialism, but is known worldwide mainly for three works of one of their initial terms, the so-called Russian period: The Firebird ( L'Oiseau de feu, 1910), Petrushka (1911) and The Rite of Spring (Le sacre du printemps, 1913). For many, these ballets, daring and innovative, practically reinvented the genre. Stravinsky also wrote for various types of sets in a wide spectrum of classical forms, from operas and symphonies to small piano pieces and works for jazz ensembles.
Stravinsky also achieved fame as a pianist and conductor, often of their own compositions. It was also a writer, with the help of Alexis Roland-Manuel, Stravinsky compiled a theoretical work entitled Poetics of Music (Music Poetry), in which he said a famous phrase: "Music is powerless to express anything by itself." [1] Robert Craft had several interviews with the composer, which were published as Conversations with Stravinsky [2] (Conversations with Stravinsky).
Essentially a cosmopolitan Russian, Stravinsky was one of the most influential composers and artists of twentieth century music, both in the West and in his homeland. He was regarded by Time magazine as one of the most influential personalities of the twentieth century.

Robert Alexander Schumann #8
Robert Alexander Schumann (Zwickau, June 8, 1810 - Endenich, Bonn, July 29, 1856). German composer of the romantic era and one of the most famous musicians in the first half of the nineteenth century. Both in life and in his work reflects its best nature of romanticism, always wrapped in the passion, drama and, finally, joy. Une literary figure with a great musical complexity, creating works of great lyrical intensity.
Composer and critic
In parallel to his new career as a composer, began his music critic's work, which generated a wealth of literary production. His exceptional literary skill training and were translated into music criticism, which, through imaginary characters, delved into the works of his contemporaries. A famous example is his essay on Chopin's variations on a theme of Don Juan, which appeared in the Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung in 1831.
His Opus 2 Papillons (Fr., "Butterflies") written in 1831 is another example of the fusion between literature and music composition by Schumann. It is a composition for piano, which consists of several dance scenes inspired by a costume party. Each dance is to portray different characters and are not related to each other, except the last. As Schumann wrote himself, is inspired by the last scene of the play Flegeljahre of Johann Paul Friedrich Richter and mixing the festive character with an extraordinary feeling melancholy.
Death in 1833 of his sister Rosalie and his brother Julius caused him a nervous breakdown. The crisis, depression, periods of detention etc complete. were common in Schumann's life and was accentuated after 1834, continuing to grow until his death (even going to hear voices and experiencing hallucinations). This was related mental decline initially by nineteenth century historians with syphilis (or the disastrous medical treatment based on mercury, usually at the time and almost worse than the disease itself), but the possibility has been ruled out because symptoms of mental imbalance of Robert Schumann were evident from his youth, before any symptoms of syphilis may have been manifested. The most accepted theory is that he suffered from bipolar disorder (manic-depressive illness). But Schumann's creative intensive focused on his periods of lucidity, so admirable. Restored as soon as a period of illness, surrendered to the composition frantically, working tirelessly. Not only wrote the melodies and was limited to major piano works, but despite being in a physical and mental severely degraded, full symphonic instrumentation wrote all his works, until exhaustion.
After recovering from this crisis, in 1834 founded the journal Zeitschrift für Musik Neue Leipziger, flagship of the new musical trends advocated by the Brotherhood of David, who led until the end of his life. It is in this publication that gives free rein to his music criticism, considered at that time as eccentric, but today label as visionary. In the early nineteenth century, composers such as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig van Beethoven and Carl Maria von Weber were seen as lesser figures [citation needed], so it was considered a raised eccentricity as Schumann's great composers, not to mention its appreciation of contemporary figures such as Chopin and Hector Berlioz. In this new release, did all this and more.
In the summer of 1834 falls in love with Ernestine von Fricken, a girl of 16 years who maintained a brief relationship that he would break at the end of the year. It is during this flirtation when he composed his most acclaimed work, Op 9, Carnival. These are variations on the notes that make up the word Asch (Ernestine's home town) in German musical notation. They are also the letters with a note equivalent of Schumann's own name. Each variation begins with the notes and, more than ever, Schumann used to compose the musical illustration of a story, with well-defined characters and script. Also strengthens the composition and format began in Papillons, creating very short tracks generally unrelated, but are inspired by the same literary scene. The majority of Schumann's piano compositions are formed by movements that last a few minutes or even less than a minute.
Mendelssohn was personally acquainted with Friedrich Wieck's house in 1835 and showed his admiration would meet shortly after Chopin. Throughout his life Schumann showed toward his fellow musicians sincere friendship and an attitude of constructive criticism, free from rivalry, something rare in a music critic who is also a composer. This open and generous attitude allowed him to be "discovered" by Johannes Brahms when he was just an unknown young pianist of 20 years. Brahms became a close friend of Schumann (and his wife Clara Wieck, especially in the years in which Schumann's illness worsened) and was clearly influenced by his music.
Fortunino Francesco Verdi #9
Fortunino Francesco Giuseppe Verdi (La Roncole, Busseto, October 10, 1813 - Milan, January 27, 1901) was a Romantic Italian opera of the nineteenth century, the most notable composer of Italian opera and bridge between the bel canto of Rossini, Donizetti and Bellini and the current of verismo and Puccini. He was the author of some of the most popular titles repertoire, such as those that make popular or romantic trilogy: Rigoletto, La Traviata and Il Trovatore and the masterpieces of maturity as Aida, Don Carlo, Otello and Falstaff.
Fortunino Giuseppe Verdi Francesco was born in Le Roncole on October 10, 1813, the town was then part of the Duchy of Parma (which in turn was part of France). He received his first music lessons. He continued his studies in Busseto, under the supervision of Ferdinando Provesi.
Soon became the organist of the church of his people. Try entering the conservatory in the city of Milan but fails.
We can say that their first successes are related to the political situation that existed in Italy. Apart from its artistic quality, the operas also served to exalt the national character of the Italian people. Perhaps the Va pensiero (Chorus of slaves from the opera Nabucco) is one of the most popular choirs in Italy for this reason. In this way, Verdi triumph in Milan.
Thanks to the successes, Verdi can bet on a more personal style in his operas and pressure librettists and entrepreneurs to take risks and experiment a little more. It is notable, in this sense, the way in which begat the opera Macbeth, with a strenuous, even despotic, testing to make the text more spoken than sung. Verdi achieves its mission and the success of these operations is also apparent.
A period of personal difficulties, with the death of his first wife and daughter, which contrasts with the creation of their most popular and beloved operas, the aforementioned Rigoletto, La Traviata and Il Trovatore.
Many consider the maturity of the composer is seen in the works that follow this period, for example, Don Carlos, which was composed for the Paris Grand Opera, Aida, written for the Cairo Opera, Otello and Falstaff, with a libretto Arrigo Boito based on Shakespeare. Some of these works are not well received by audiences or critics, who describe them as too Wagnerian, criticism that the author always denied.
In his later years, Verdi composed some works not operatic. Although not particularly religious, he composed liturgical works, such as the Requiem Mass (1874) and the Te Deum. He also composed the anthem of nations, which includes the melodies of the hymns Italian, French and English on text by the poet Arrigo Boito (1862) and a string quartet in E minor (1873).
He died in Milan on January 27, 1901, affected by a stroke. He left his fortune to the establishment of a nursing home for retired musicians that bears his name: Casa Verdi in Milan, where he is buried. His funeral raises popular commotion and the passage of the public funeral spontaneously intone the chorus of slaves from Nabucco ("Va pensiero sull'ali dorate).
