Reviews
"This is an important book. (...) This rich collection assembled by Aisling Kenny and Susan Wollenberg is a 'must-have' for those interested in the history of lieder, the musical practices of women, and the social landscape of the nineteenth century." - Marcia J. Citron, Rice University.
"Women and the Nineteenth-Century Lied takes nineteenth-century music scholarship a considerable step closer toward a greater inclusiveness of repertoire, composers and methodologies, and for that it is profoundly welcome." - Laura K.T. Stokes, Brown University
"... a fine volume for lieder scholars..." - Susan H. Borwick, Journal of the International Alliance for Women in Music
