Description

Joseph Martin Kraus (1756-1792), Kappellmeister to Gustavus III of Sweden, developed a musical style which embodied the application of Sturm und Drang principles to his works. The author of this study seeks to prove how this style infiltrated many of Kraus's other musical endeavours, creating pieces that were favourably compared to Mozart's and were far ahead of their time in technique.
