In this program, the viewer will learn why Vienna became such a center for the most creative and powerful composers of Europe, as Vivaldi, Haydn, Beethoven, Mozart, Schubert, and Strauss all lived and worked there at various times. Man and Music: Music of an Empire also discusses many elements of music, including opera in Italy, the origins of the symphony, and how classical music evolved from the Baroque era that preceded it. By understanding the context in which the music is created, viewers will have a better perspective on both the composers and their works.
