The aesthetic of the picturesque, derived from the controlled wilderness of the landscape garden, provided writers on music with a language in which to describe the musical genre of the free fantasia, and the picturesque emerges here as a vital means for understanding the fantastical elements in the music of C. P. E. Bach, Haydn, and Beethoven.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47586815115415,"sku":"9780521027533","price":7130.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780521027533.webp?v=1774965372","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-free-fantasia-and-the-musical-picturesque-9780521027533","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
