DescriptionIn my past episode about Frederick The Great, I mentioned Sturm und Drang aka "storm and stress". This movement occurred in German literature and music between the late 1760s and early 1780s. It was a style of composition that evoked emotions of stress, fear, horror and anxiety. Take a minute to get the scoop!Listen to: Mozart's Symphony No. 25 (the "Little" G-minor symphony) ℅ YouTubeFun FactThe clearest musical connections to the self-styled Sturm und Drang movement can be found in opera and the early predecessors of program music, such as Haydn's Farewell Symphony. Beethoven, Weber, and even Schubert also have elements of Sturm und Drang.About Steven, HostSteven is a Canadian composer living in Toronto.
