Answer
Salieri's music faded into obscurity during the 19th and 20th centuries due to several reasons. One significant factor was the rise of Romanticism, which favored more emotionally expressive music, overshadowing Salieri's classical style. Additionally, Salieri's association with the Mozart myth, perpetuated by the play and later film "Amadeus," contributed to his neglect.
