Answer:

1. Very homophonic textures (thick and chordal).

2. Regular use of rubarto (tempo varied at the players choice).

3. In piano music, lots of pedal work.

4. The music very often told a story. eg. Beethoven's moonlight sonata.

5. Much larger orchestras than in the classical period due to the addition of brass.
