Description

The “Long 19th Century” (Eric Hobsbawm) spans from the French Revolution in 1789 to the outbreak of World War I in the summer of 1914. This concept can also be usefully applied to the history of music, where its chronological scope can be expanded somewhat. From the emergence of the so-called “Viennese Classical period” in the 1770s to the so-called “Second Viennese School” in the 1910s, strong continuities can be observed in European music history despite rapid modernization. This lecture aims to place this development within a broad international and sociopolitical context.
