From the 1800s to about 1910, Western classical music was defined by its soaring melodies and ever-expanding orchestrations, originality and self-expression. Here are the composers who made all this possible: There are many musicians in the romantic period.
Romance time. In the wonderful words of composer and classical FM host John Branning, "They named him twice. So good."
The 'early' Romantic era began around 1800 with the great classical music of the time Ludwig van his Beethoven. His symphonic revolution ushered in a new era in music history. Fast forward to the turn of the century and music looked very different from the classical era (1730-1820). Late-romantic composers like Rachmaninoff and Mahler expanded the orchestra to an unprecedented scale, adding more colors and instruments, transforming the music into a range of human emotions, from sorrow to joy, passion to sorrow. I changed it to a way to express the whole range.
Here we explore some of the biggest contributors to romance.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Romanticism in music, as a general trend,
is usually said to begin in approximately 1820,
when the early Romantic-period composers
who followed Beethoven began composing
their music in the new Romantic style.
The leading early-Romantic composers
include Carl Maria von Weber, (1786-1826)
Gioachino Rossini (1792-1868) and
Franz Schubert, (1798-1828) among others.
These early Romantic composers were all
rooted in the traditions of the Classical period,
and their music, like Beethoven’s,
reflects this influence.
3. A second generation of Romantic
composers, whose music is not as
deeply-rooted in the Classical style,
began composing music in the 1820s.
This second-generation of Romantic
composers, including the Italian opera
composers Gaetano Donizetti (1797-1848)
and Vincenzo Bellini (1801-1835) and the
French composer Hector Berlioz
(1803-1869) enjoyed success forging
a new style of music that moved
further away from the Classical style.
4. Berlioz in particular created a sensation in
1830 when his gargantuan Symphonie
Fantastique was premiered in Paris.
In Germany, Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847)
emerged during the late 1820s in his
teenage years as a composer with
a distinctly new and important voice.
In 1829, Mendelssohn presented and
conducted the first performance of J.S. Bach’s
great Saint Matthew Passion, the first
performance of this landmark work since
Bach’s death in 1750, which eventually led to
a resurgence in interest in Bach’s music
throughout Europe.
5. The 1830s saw the emergence of such
important early-Romantic composers as
Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849) and
Robert Schumann, (1810-1856).
In the 1840s, pianist-composer Franz Liszt,
(1811-1886) and operatic composers
Richard Wagner, (1813-1883) and
Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901) came to the
public’s attention. By the 1850s, they all
emerged as leading composers in their
respective genres of Romantic music.
6. During the 1850s, composers of opera and
operetta, such as Charles Gounod (1818-
1893) and Jacques Offenbach (1819-1880)
in Paris and Johann Strauss, Jr. (1825-1899)
and Franz von Suppé (1819-1895) in Vienna
were becoming popular with the public.
7. In the 1860s and 1870s, musical Romanticism was in
full swing throughout Europe, as more and more
composers came to the public’s attention.
Composers such as the
German composer Johannes Brahms,
Austrian composer Anton Bruckner, (1824-1896)
Czech composer Bedřich Smetana, (1824-1884)
French composers Georges Bizet (1838-1875)
and Camille Saint-Saëns, (1835-1921)
Russian composers Modest Mussorgsky
(1839-1881) and Peter Illych Tchaikovsky, (1840-1893)
and Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, (1843-1907)
all gained attention with compositions that would
eventually become part of the standard repertoire.
8. In the 1880s, as musical Romanticism
was flourishing in Europe, a backlash against
what some perceived as the hyper-emotional
or overly-heavy aspects of the music of
some Romantic composers began to emerge
in the form of a new musical trend that came
to be known as Impressionism.
9. Musical Impressionism, based in France,
became a trend that was so distinctive
that in retrospect, some historians came to
regard it as a separate period or sub-period
of Western musical history.
However, unlike the other periods of Western
musical history, during which virtually all the
important composers adhered or contributed
to the musical trends of their respective
periods, Impressionism in music was only
embraced by a few composers.
10. But because the works of several of these
composers (Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel
and Ottorino Respighi) have come to be
accepted as highly significant,
Impressionism is a trend that is worthy
of serious consideration and study.
It is also important to note that many other
composers adopted Impressionist influences
in some of their works, and that trend
continued through the 20th century
and beyond.
11. However, it is important to note that during the
heyday of musical Impressionism, musical
Romanticism continued to flourish
without interruption in the works of
such Late-Romantic composers as:
Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, (1860-1911)
German composer Richard Strauss, (1864-1949)
Italian composer Giacomo Puccini (1858-1924)
Finnish composer Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) and
Russian composers Alexander Scriabin (1872-1915)
and Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943).
12. A quick examination of the dates of the lives
of many of the composers who were born in the
late 19th century shows that for many of these
composers, musical Romanticism, like
Impressionism, continued well into the 20th
century. This is true, despite the fact that a new
period of musical history, the Modern period,
began in the early 1900s.
Many of these Late-Romantic composers would
eventually incorporate modernistic elements
into their works.
13. The following seven slides contain a
chronological list of 51 important composers
of the Romantic and Impressionist periods.
This list is sorted by the years of the composers’
births, not the years in which
they emerged as prominent composers.
The purpose of including this list is to introduce
some of the lesser-known Romantic period
composers, so that you can familiarize yourself
with their names. Please read through all of the
names on the list, focusing on the last names.
This is by no means a complete list of all
Romantic-period composers.
