+===== Sensitive Style =====
+Emanuel was the most famous composer of the empfindsamer Stil, which translates as "tender style". It is distinguished by sudden shifts in mood, as well as melodies and rhythms fashioned after speech. The style was mostly connected with solo keyboard compositions, especially for clavichord and early fortepiano. These instruments, unlike the harpsichord, could make delicate changes in tone and dynamics.[([[http://www.classicalmusicguide.com/viewtopic.php?t=31326|classicalmusicguide]])]
