There is a difference between the Romantic period in literature and in music. The Romantic period in literature is usually dated earlier than that of literature. The dating of periods is frequently a contentious issue, as periods are typically labelled retroactively. Concerning music, the latter period you stated (1820-1910) is the better answer, as many Romantic composers were active during that time (e.g. Dvorak, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninov)

The romantic era lasted from the 1770s to the 1870s...so a little less than a hundred years.

What is the time period of late romantic?

Great question! The easy answer: 1800-1900. The slightly more nuanced answer: 1810ish-1910ish. It all depends on a) what you call "Romantic" and b) what you decide to use to peg the beginning and the ending of an artistic era. Some artists were ahead of the curve, some behind; some were Classical (the preceding era, c. 1750-1800) in some aspects but Romantic in others. Here's my best effort at a justification: In the late 1810's you have Beethoven's late period works, harmonically daring and intensely personal, the prototype of the Romantic "artist as hero"; you also have young Schubert's art songs and piano pieces. I'd say Schubert's "Erlking" is definitely Romantic! In the 1910's there is the simple fact that World War One disrupted classical music right at its European heart, and in the economic trials that followed, things were never quite the same. Also you have Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring" premiered in Paris in 1913--a work that features many unconventional techniques that would inspire a generation of modernist composers. Of course there will be many disagreements about this--but the discussion is fun!

Neoclassicism After the Baroque period came the Classical period, which included Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, who became a bridge to the Romantic period. In the beginning of the 20th century some composers consciously adopted styles and techniques from the Classical period. This looking-back was called neoclassicism, or new classicism.


What is a proto-romantic?

In, Proto-Romantic usually refers to the generation of musicians between the Classical era (Mozart, Haydn) and the Romantic Era (Schumann, Mendelssohn). Some Proto-romantic composers are Czerny and Hummel. Chopin and Beethoven both fit the time period, but no one typically calls them by that term because they are both so famous on their own. In that sense, proto-romantic usually refers to the lesser composers that were writing in the very early part of the 19th century.
