songA setting of words to music for one or more singers, with or without instrumental accompaniment. Song may be sacred, for example a psalm, motet, or cantata, or secular, for example a folk song or ballad. In verse song, the text changes in mood while the music remains the same; in lied and other forms of art song, the music changes in response to the emotional development of the text.

Von Otter, her voice as pure and brisk as a Nordic snowfall, rightly treats the material as if it were art song. This song is not an exercise in folky style; it is something much more remarkable, an art song that has acquired something of folk art's direct simplicity. Alas, no single CD is devoted to Griffes's many superb contributions to the art song. |
