I'm thrilled to discover Beverly Stein's book. I'.ve had teachers discuss things like this my entire career, and I've talked them over with my students for decades. But, for the first time, there is a 'how to' book with step-by-step instructions for thinking about harmony, alliteration, texture, and a hundred other things in crafting a compelling performance. The author uses familiar components of familiar songs to make her points with great success --Brian Horne, associate professor of music and chair of the voice department, Indiana University Jacobs School of Music Unlocking Meaning in Art Song is an invaluable guide that will lead singers, collaborative pianists, and teachers to a deeper understanding of the genius and beauty that is art song. Teachers will find that Stein's text is easily adapted to young singers' first foray into the discovery of art song, and it will also challenge university students in crafting research projects of their own. From basic elements of poetry to complex harmonic analysis, Stein takes us by the hand to experience ever-deeper levels of craftsmanship and artistry in art song. --Robin Fisher, professor of music, California State University, Sacramento; co-author of American Art Song & American Poetry
