Included in this study are stylistic characteristics of Westenholz’s songs, observations on the effect poetry had on their musical designs, and discussion of how her compositions fit into the development of the Lied. Chiefly, I explore the compositional techniques used in these songs and analyze how their melodies, rhythms, harmonies, forms, and piano accompaniments relate to the better-known song schools of the period and the works of her contemporaries. I also discuss her innovations and the musical choices Westenholz made based on the text to illustrate how her Lieder expanded upon the standard model of the Classic Lied. Finally, this document is an opportunity to study new repertoire in its historical context, bring to light the talents of lesser-known composers, and to honor the creative contributions of women to the musical field. 2006-07-19 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1142364141 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1142364141 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
