; Romantic Landmarks
: '''Schubert’s 'Erlkönig' ''' → The "Perfect Art Song": one singer plays **4 Characters** (Narrator, Father, Child, Death), proving the "Psychological Power" of music.
: '''Chopin’s 'Nocturnes' ''' → The "Soul of the Piano": pieces that "Captured" the "Night" and the "Private Grief" of the artist.
: '''Verdi’s 'Aida' ''' → The "Grand Opera": "Spectacle" and "Politics" on a "Massive Scale," proving "Music" could be "Public Theater."
: '''Mahler’s 8th Symphony ('Symphony of a Thousand')''' → The "Limit" of the orchestra: it required **1,000 performers**, "Trying" to "Include the Whole World" in one song.
