HECTOR BERLIOZ
Hector Berlioz is a French romantic composer born on
December 11, 1803. At his young age, he learned to
play guitar and flute but never became skilled in a
specific musical instrument.
One of his famous musical compositions is a five-
movement symphony called "Symphony Fantastique".
In this composition which is also known as "Fantastic
Symphony", Berlioz showcased the important features
in his composition in creating tone color. He
assembled hundreds of musicians to produce a
powerful sound. In most of his compositions, he made
tone color as the basic part of his musical language.

HECTOR BERLIOZ
STORY OF SYMPHONIE FANTASTIQUE:
A young, extremely sensitive and imaginative
musician tries to kill himself with opium due to
depression caused by discouraged love.
Unfortunately, the dose was not enough and does not
kill him but instead, plunges him into a heavy sleep
flocked with nightmares. His experiences, feelings and
memories are translated into hallucinations of musical
thoughts and images. The girl he loves was
transformed into a melody and like a recurring theme,
he meets and hears everywhere. Each movement of
the symphony refers to a different vision in the young
musician's mind.

1840, in Votkinsk, Russia, was known for his ballet
music. As a big fan of Mozart, Tchaikovsky studied

conservatory.
He continued his music career in New York and
became famous after composing the musical poem

haunting melodies and used a great deal of folk music
in his symphonic works. Unfortunately, there are very
few surviving manuscripts written by Tchaikovsky. His
fame peaked in the last ten years of his life and later
died due to cholera.

GENERALIZATION
Romantic music refers to Western music composed in the late 18th
century to the 19th century. Composers and artists believed in letting
their imagination and passion be seen through their works.
Ludwig Van Beethoven bridged the music from Classical to Romantic era
by expressing his passion and emotions through his music. Other
composers were inspired by this musical style that they started to use
music as a means of expressing their emotions and individuality.

popular among the middle class. Concert halls provided venues for
musical performances, and instrumental music was available to a wide
audience.
