External links[edit]

I notice there is an external link to the string orchestral version of the Holberg Suite; I'd like to add a link to a piano version of the suite as well. Innerkip (talk) 04:29, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Liszt comparison[edit]

It is an example of a piece of nineteenth century music which makes use of musical styles and forms from the preceding century. It can be compared with Franz Liszt's À la Chapelle Sixtine, S.360 (1862) and contrasted with later neoclassical works.

I'm not sure this is a valid comparison. À la Chapelle Sixtine is a direct piano transcription of 2 earlier works, Allegri's Miserere and Mozart's Ave verum corpus.

I think Prokofiev's Classical Symphony or Ravel's Le tombeau de Couperin would be better examples of works that emulated earlier styles without quoting or being based on specific earlier compositions. But I'm sure there are examples that predate the Holberg Suite. -- Jack of Oz ^[Talk] 02:18, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
