Abstract

These scholarly program notes examine various selections of vocal music by composers, such as J.S. Bach, Leonard Bernstein, W.A. Mozart, Franz Schrecker, Claude Debussy, Gwyneth Walker, Stephen Sondheim, and Cole Porter with the intention of attaining a better understanding of each piece through biographical, poetic, and musical analysis. The analysis of repertoire will be for the benefit of performance for the graduate recital of Jessica Samples.
