Lied? Mélodie? Canzona? A weekend of German, French and Italian art-songs. How do composers illuminate text, and make a real marriage – or a very civil partnership – between words and music? We will make foreign language less foreign by exploring the meaning of the text itself, and consider how the words and music interact. Guaranteed enlightenment – guaranteed fun! Bring four pieces; suggestions provided on request.
