This book is a new and exciting interdisciplinary resource which
integrates the worlds of music and literature. It is the first
primary and secondary source collection of its kind to focus on the
relationships between words and music, and between musical and
verbal forms. Featured along with key writings on music, speech and
their relationship are previously unpublished articles and
interview transcripts, and a new translation of an extract from
Wagner's theoretical works.
Designed for undergraduate students, the book uniquely:
- examines a historically and geographically diverse selection
of genres from a variety of academic perspectives
- explores issues of language, musical form, performance, song,
narrative, sound and action, and identity
- enables readers to connect with different histories, cultures
and technologies via the linkages between musical and literary
texts.
This anthology is an important contribution to the growing field
of music and literature studies, and an engaging read for anyone
interested in a culturally rich musical and literary
inheritance.
