GRADE 9- LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEETS IN MUSIC

Background Information:
Some musicians, composers and researchers around the world as a cultural movement that
stressed emotion, imagination, individualism and freedom of expression describe Romantic Period.
Expanding the formal structure within a composition and making the pieces more passionate and
expressive characterized it. Nationalism is one of the main features of this era. This is evidently
shown in some compositions made by Romantic composers. One of which is the Polonaise of
Frederic Chopin, a dance composition for piano which is famous in Poland until today. Emotions,
variety of musical style in compositions, freedom of expression are only a few things that
characterized the music of the Romantic period. It was during the heights of popularity of Ludwig
Van Beethoven, one of the great composers during the Classical period made a great distinction to
change the phase of composing music by bridging the music from Classical to Romantic era.
The culture of extensive music education in Europe extends from the Classical period and
explored more in this era. Orchestra grows in number and became limitless, composers explored
instrumentation and many compositions were inspired by emotions in addition to a musical
theme. The music during this period used forms borrowed from Classical music and made them
bigger longer songs and more instruments. The themes they wrote in their composition are mainly
about nature, literature, history and feelings.
