I disagree with your dates of the Romantic Era as being 1825-1945. While it is true that several composers during the first 45 years of the 20th century composed in a distinctly Romantic style (e.g. Rachmanioff), these composers are generally considered to be "neo-romantics," not "late romantics." The techniques they use contain clear contemporary influences. Additionally, while several composers continued in this style, the general trend moved to the more atonal contemporary era. I did, however, modify my original endpoint of 1900 to 1905 to conform with the dates given by wikipedia.

Possible Consolidation
Hi there, please have a look at the work I have just completed on Western Music History. Unfortunatly I did not know that this book was in existance when I started work on Western Music History. Perhaps we could consolidate our work. However, the writing is very rough at the moment. But still have a look and see what you think. Ralfe Poisson 10:09, 6 February 2006 (UTC)Ralfe
