Each composer has something unique in their pieces of music/composition that intrigues the audience to keep on listening Hector Berlioz- was a French Romantic composer, best know for his compositions Symphonie fantastique and Grande messes de morts.

Mendlssohn was a German composer, pianist, organist and conductor of the early Romantic
