Songs in Motion - Malin, Yonatan (Assistant Professor, Assistant Professor, Wesleyan University)

This book explores rhythm and meter in the German Lied, including songs by Hensel, Schubert, Schumann, Brahms, and Wolf. It provides new methodologies for analysis and close readings of individual songs. It illustrates the transformation of poetic meter into musical rhythm and situates songs within larger aesthetic and historical narratives.
