It was this period in his life 1840's Berlioz spent much of his time making music outside France. He struggled to make money from his concerts in Paris and learning of the large sums made by promoters from performances of his music in other countries he resolved to try conducting abroad. His extensive German tour in twelve German cities received enthusiastic receptions. The German public was better disposed than the French to his innovative compositions and his conducting was seen as highly impressive. He extravagantly praised Beethoven's symphonies and Gluck's and Weber's operas and scrupulously refrained from promoting his own compositions.
