The Modern Romantic A podcast inspiring & celebrating romanticism in art (of many forms) in today's age.

Romanticism, an attitude or intellectual orientation that characterized many works of literature, painting, music, architecture, criticism, and historiography in Western civilization over a period from the late 18th to the mid-19th century. Romanticism can be seen as a rejection of the precepts of order, calm, harmony, balance, idealization, and rationality that typified Classicism in general and

late 18th-century Neoclassicism in particular. It was also to some extent a reaction against the Enlightenment and against 18th-century rationalism and physical materialism in general. Romanticism emphasized the individual, the subjective, the irrational, the imaginative, the personal, the spontaneous, the emotional, the visionary, and the transcendental. Among the characteristic attitudes of Romanticism were the following: a deepened appreciation of the beauties of nature; a general exaltation of emotion over reason and of the senses over intellect; a turning in upon the self and a heightened examination of human personality and its moods and mental potentialities; a preoccupation with the genius, the hero, and the exceptional figure in general and a focus on his or her passions and inner struggles; a new view of the artist as a supremely individual creator, whose creative spirit is more important than strict adherence to formal rules and traditional procedures; an emphasis upon imagination as a gateway to transcendent experience and spiritual truth; an obsessive interest in folk culture, national and ethnic cultural origins, and the medieval era; and a predilection for the exotic, the remote, the mysterious, the weird, the occult, the monstrous, the diseased, and even the darker places of the world.

David Scott Binanay the Modern Romantic Podcast

David Scott is a trained classical violinist with over 30 years of experience. With much time spent studying under Brian Reagin, current Concert Master of the North Carolina Symphony, David can deftly maneuver any genre, style, or melody on the violin.

He graduated from Villanova University with a degree in Humanities. Whilst living in Philadelphia, he developed a deep appreciation and skill for music production and improvisation.

After having the opportunity to play at Carnegie Hall, an
overwhelming feeling of disenchantment about the prosaic path of symphonics overcame David. Coupled with persistent health scares, he was compelled to make a change.

David yearned to push beyond the rigid boundaries and expectations of classical violin in order to fully realize his potential as a multi-faceted creative.

Recently, David has collaborated with notable Grammy Award-winning artists including a number of associated acts that have produced and arranged for Frank Sinatra, Dr. Dre, John Williams,and Aaliyah, among several others.

Although his bourgeoning music career is nearing the precipice of national acclaim, David unfailingly makes time in his schedule to play locally at the retirement homes and hospitals that he frequented just a few years ago to make ends meet.
