- Summary:
- In spite of growing interest in the songs of Hugo Wolff, there's still a lack of serious critical discussion of the nature of his achievements. This book offers an in-depth study of his music, including derailed analyses of selected songs. Perspectives from musical analysis and history are brought together to show how this composer and late-nineteenth-century song have a far more significant role in helping us to understand Wagner's musical and aesthetic influence than has yet been realized.
