'" VI.
An ardent disciple of Wagner sums up his ideas of the mania forthe Rossini music, which possessed Europe for fifteen years, in thefollowing: "Rossini, the most gifted and spoiled of her sons [speakingof Italy] sallied forth with an innumerable army of Bacchantic melodiesto conquer the world, the Messiah of joy, the breaker of thought andsorrow. Europe, by this time, had tired of the empty pomp of Frenchdeclamation. It lent but too willing an ear to the new gospel, andeagerly quaffed the ...intoxicating potion, which Rossini poured out ininexhaustible streams. " This very well expresses the delight of all thecountries of Europe in music which for a long time almost monopolizedthe stage.
The charge of being a mere tune-spinner, the denial of invention, depth, and character, have been common watchwords in the mouths of criticswedded to other schools. But Rossini's place in music stands unshaken byall assaults. The vivacity of his style, the freshness of his melodies, the richness of his combinations, made all the Italian music thatpreceded him pale and colorless.
