Institution:

The New England Conservatory of Music

Subject:

Description:

Examines both German Romantic poetry and the musical settings of Schubert, Schumann, Brahms, Mahler, and others. As the Lied genre developed, the poetic text seemed to encourage innovation and daring in virtually every aspect of musical composition. Study of the poetic text will lead to greater understanding of all aspects of the musical setting: harmony, tonality, melody, motive, meter, rhythm, articulation through texture, register, timbre, etc. Where possible, students will perform various Lieder in the classroom.
