Discuss one romantic composer. How did the composer influence the music of the romantic period? What does his music sound like?

Answer: I have chosen Giacomo Puccini. He composed music that was full of emotion. His drive was to feed his audience with what they wanted to hear, as well as to move them with his great works. He succeeded so with his most famous work Verdi. He also composed more "mature" music than others. This influenced the Romantic period to pushed harder and put more emotion in the music, seeing as the majority of the population enjoyed the more "mature" sound.
