Twentieth- and Twenty-First-Century Song Cycles: Analytical
Pathways Toward Performance presents analyses of fourteen song
cycles composed after the turn of the twentieth century, with a
focus on offering ways into the musical and poetic structure of
each cycle to performers, scholars, and students alike. Ranging
from familiar works of twentieth-century music by composers such as
Schoenberg, Britten, Poulenc, and Shostakovich to lesser-known
works by Van Wyk, Sviridov, Wheeler, and Sanchez, this collection
of essays captures the diversity of the song cycle repertoire in
contemporary classical music. The contributors bring their own
analytical perspectives and methods, considering musical
structures, the composers' selection of texts, how poetic
narratives are expressed, and historical context. Informed by music
history, music theory, and performance, Twentieth- and
Twenty-First-Century Song Cycles offers an essential guide into the
contemporary art-music song cycle for performers, scholars,
students, and anyone seeking to understand this unique genre.
