1. This is the first book-length study of German Lieder to focus on performance more broadly as a cultural practice. 2. The author, Jennifer Ronyak is regarded as an expert in this area and has published many articles on this topic. This is her first book-length project on the topic. 3. This study is an important contribution to musicology as it takes the well-known ideology of intimacy in German art song, or Lieder, and looks at it critically, using performance to put pressure on the concept. Ronyak's unique approach explains how performers and audiences navigated the contradictions inherent in performing songs that were considered intimate expressions of the interior self.
