Post-Romantic Era

The Post-Romantic Era is a musical genre that emerged in the late 19th century and early 20th century. It is characterized by a more complex harmonic language, a greater emphasis on chromaticism, and a more expansive use of musical forms. It is also marked by a greater focus on the individual composer's personal style and expression. Composers of this era often sought to create music that was more emotionally expressive and less bound by traditional forms. Examples of Post-Romantic Era composers include Gustav Mahler, Richard Strauss, Sergei Rachmaninoff, and Claude Debussy.
