Famous Artists of the Classical Period Famous artists of the time included Jacques Louis-David who painted in a classical style Caspar David Friedrich painted in the romantic style – he was anti-classical Movements in art do not always run chronologically parallel to movements in music

Characteristics… “Classical” is a term that can be used to describe both a genre of music and a time period. Music of this period was simple, balanced, and symmetrical. Absolute music – music for music’s sake. Music that sounds academic, not emotional The use of rigid musical forms was popular (e.g. fugue, sonata)

Lifestyles of Musicians A big change in a musician’s life during the Classical period was a movement away from a patronage system to a freelance system Patronage system - musicians were hired by the wealthy to compose music for their “courts”. They often lived with their patrons. Freelance system - musicians composed music on their own and sold it to interested parties.
