•Wolf - Austrian composer of 245 published songs, and 103 unpublished or posthumously published. His most well-known pieces are the Spanisches Liederbuch, and two volumes of Italienisches Liederbuch. He is particularly noted for using his music to reflect the text faithfully. His song cycles encompass a wide range of mood, dark and light. He made expressive use of the piano accompaniment to assist mood and structure.
•Schumann - composed over 300 songs (including the cycles Frauenliebe und Leben, and Dichterliebe), roughly 70 part songs, 30 duets and trios. His works are deeply Romantic in their use of extra-musical reference and programmatic content, for example Frauenliebe und Leben depicts flowering of a woman's love, marriage, giving birth and her husband's death. He favoured the piano accompaniment, often leaving it playing alone at the conclusion of a song.
•Mendelsohn - German Romantic composer who wrote 6 concert arias, 70 songs and 12 duets. Although he was a romantic composer, he leaned towards classical clarity. His songs were particularly finely crafted, and used especially sweet cantabile lines that were popular with singers.
•Warlock - this Anglo-Welsh composer wrote many songs, and is celebrated especially for The Curlew, which used a string quartet, flute and cor anglais to accompany a tenor voice. His music is influenced by Delius and Bartok, and utilizes modal lines, and distinctive chord structures as well as sliding parallel chromaticisms. He often used medieval poems as the text for his songs.
•Stanford - an Irish composer, well known in his day for his choral works. He figured prominently in the rebirth of British composition and his influences included Brahms and Schumann (he studied in Germany), with his melodies often informed by Irish folksong. His choral works include a Requiem, motets and anthems. He also wrote some sensitive part songs, including the popular "The Blue Bird". ||
