Rezensionen

'Scholars and teachers will be grateful for the brand-new emphases on performing traditions and performers, on the 20th-century cycle, on the migrations of the song cycle into non-Germanic lands, and on the cycle in popular music. Much of this is original work, superbly done and beautifully written ... Tunbridge's introductory chapter on concepts is the clearest approach (and the most thought-provoking) to vexed issues of definition I have ever encountered.' Susan Youens, J. W. Van Gorkom Professor of Music Musicology, University of Notre Dame
