Während der Begriff ›klassische Musik‹ heute oft allgemein als Synonym für europäische beziehungsweise ernste Musik (E-Musik) verwendet wird, umfasst die Epoche der Klassik im engeren Sinne die Zeitspanne von der Mitte des 18. bis zum Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts. Dies war eine Epoche, in der man die griechische und römische Kunst der Antike wieder entdeckte. Aber es war auch eine Epoche großer sozialer und politischer Unruhen, die die etablierte Ordnung herausforderten und schließlich in der Französischen Revolution und der Herrschaft Napoleons gipfelten. Das vorliegende Hörbuch zeigt, wie sich all dies in der Musik widerspiegelte, die in diesen turbulenten, aber auch ungeheuer kreativen Jahren entstand. Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven sind nur drei der musikalischen Genies dieser Epoche, die Stephen Johnson porträtiert und deren unsterbliche Musik sich auf dem Hörbuch entdecken lässt.
