The document provides an overview of the transition from the Classical period to the Romantic period in European art music. It discusses changes in instrumentation, form, and technical demands as orchestras and compositions grew more complex. The Romantic period saw an increase in emotional expression and a focus on descriptive themes in addition to musical themes. Instruments like the ophicleide and heckelphone were incorporated into Romantic-era orchestras.
