the violin solo represents the calm dreams the shepherd is having. Each Season is a movement in the composition and I will be focusing on the spring section. The music starts off with a small range of instruments only involving violins, solo viola, cellos and the harpsichord.

The Music of Johannes Brahms and Frederic Chopin Johannes Brahms and Frederic Chopin were two of the most significant and influential musicians of the Romantic era, which extended from approximately 1820 until 1900. Romantic music built on the ideas that were developed in the preceding era, the Classical era, and had even greater ranges of tone color, dynamics and pitch, as well as greater emphasis on dramatic, unstable chords (Kamien 1998, p. 210).
