Question

1. how is the music from the romantic period most different from music of previous periods?

the works used more instruments and voices.
the compositions were shorter than ever before.
the pieces usually focused on one main movement.
the music was considered smaller and simpler.

Explanation:

Romantic period music expanded orchestral size (more instruments) and vocal ensembles compared to prior periods (e.g., Classical), which focused on smaller, balanced groups. Other options are incorrect: Romantic works were often longer, not shorter; they typically had multiple movements (like Classical); and they were more complex, not simpler.

Answer:

The works used more instruments and voices.
