| Summary |
Includes "how the music is written to fit the text; the creative choices a composer makes in melody, harmony & development; how the composer draws out the emotion from poetry and music; rhythm and how it is more than the time signature; why the composer's expression markings are critical to interpreting a score; word painting: making the music sound like what the words are saying; how new music is being written in our time; why certain poems are selected and how the poetry motivates writing of the music; and more about the role of performer, from the composer's perspective."--Container. |
