Word and Music Studies
Essays on Music and the Spoken Word and on Surveying the Field
Series: - Word and Music Studies, Volume: 7
- Word and Music Studies Online, Volume: 7
The nine interdisciplinary essays in this volume were presented in 2003 in Berlin at the Fourth International Conference on Word and Music Studies, which was sponsored by The International Association for Word and Music Studies (WMA). The nine articles in this volume cover two areas: âSurveying the Fieldâ and âMusic and the Spoken Wordâ. Topics include postmodernism, philosophy, German literary modernism, opera, film, the Lied, radio plays, and âverbal counterpointâ. They cover the works of such philosophers, critics, literary figures, and composers as Argento, Beckett, Deleuze, Guattari, Feldman, Glenn Gould, Nietzsche, Schubert, Strauss, Wagner, and Wolfram. Three films are discussed: Casablanca, The Fisher King, and Thirty Two Short Films About Glenn Gould.
