This book proposes a new theory about the neo-classical style in music.
The Danish emeritus professor Finn Egeland Hansen has chosen three different composers - the French Camille Saint-Saens and Charles Gounod, and the Danish Niels W.
Gade - to discuss his thesis that the main classical-romantic current of the 19th century in fact represents two sub-currents.
One sub-current focusing on the romantic aspects, the other focusing on the classical aspects of its musical style.
