This week in we learned about music and philosophers in the 1800’s. We learned the 1800’s was the emancipation of music from language. One of the ideas was that music is able to do what language cannot. It was stating that sometimes we cannot explain our emotions or what we want to say. Therefore, we use music to express what we cannot say. In some ways, music was like a process of philosophy. The romantics was when literature, paintings, and art were important.
