An Sylvia, D. 891; Op. 106, No. 4, is a Lied composed by Romantic era composer Franz Schubert in 1826 and published in 1828.

 The text was translated into German from English by Eduard von Bauernfeld, and the song is scored for voice and piano.
 "An Sylvia" was composed during a peak point in Schubert's career around the time he was writing the Ninth Symphony "Great" (D 944) just two years before his death.

Romantic chess was the style of chess prevalent from the late 15th century until the 1880s.
 Chess games of this period emphasized more on quick, tactical maneuvers rather than long-term strategic planning.
 The Romantic era of play was followed by the Scientific, Hypermodern, and New Dynamism eras.Games during this era generally consisted of 1.
 e4 openings such as the King's Gambit and Giuoco Piano.
 Queen side pawn openings were not popular and seldom played.
 The Romantic era is generally considered to have ended with the 1873 Vienna Tournament where Wilhelm Steinitz popularized positional play and the closed game.
 This domination ushered in a new age of chess known as the "Modern", or Classical school, which would last until the 1930s when hypermodernism began to become popular.
Fritz Bovet (fl.
 1845-1888) was a Swiss romantic era composer and violinist.
Ridolfo Luigi Boccherini (] ; February 19, 1743 – May 28, 1805) was an Italian classical era composer and cellist whose music retained a courtly and galante style while he matured somewhat apart from the major European musical centers.
 Boccherini is most widely known for one particular minuet from his String Quintet in E, Op. 11, No. 5 (G 275), and the Cello Concerto in B flat major (G 482).
 The latter work was long known in the heavily altered version by German cellist and prolific arranger Friedrich Grützmacher, but has recently been restored to its original version.
 Boccherini composed several guitar quintets, including the "Fandango", which was influenced by Spanish music.
 His biographer Elisabeth Le Guin noted among Boccherini's musical qualities "an astonishing repetitiveness, an affection for extended passages with fascinating textures but virtually no melodic line, an obsession with soft dynamics, a unique ear for sonority, and an unusually rich palette of introverted and mournful affects."
