A Study of Six Selected Lieder from Hugo Wolf's "Gedichte von Eduard Morike"

Chen, Wei-lin 05 July 2006 (has links)
Hugo Wolf (1860-1903) composed approximately 350 songs, many of which were written in an amazing brief time span with a keen intellect. This study mainly discusses six selected songs from the songbook Gedichte von Eduard Morike. The purpose of this study is to examine the kinship between Wolf¡¦s music and Morike¡¦s poetry by analyzing the melody, harmony, and poetic rhyme scheme of these songs. This lecture-recital document contains the following five main sections: the biographical information about Wolf, the musical characteristics of Wolf¡¦s lieder, the stylistic character of Morike¡¦s poetry, the background of Wolf¡¦s composing the songbook Gedichte von Eduard Morike, and a performance analysis of six selected songs of Morike¡¦s lyrics by Wolf. Each song exhibits Wolf¡¦s intuitive sense of blending word and sound. The new declamatory style, effective harmonic subtleties and expressive piano accompaniment are crafted to extract the essence of the poetry in Wolf¡¦s songs.
