This captivating book delves into the realm of art song as a vibrant symbol of musical modernity in early twentieth-century East Asia and Australia. It explores the profound lyrical power of art song, a solo composition set to a poem in the local language, accompanied by a piano, as a means to forge a distinct musical identity while embracing a cosmopolitan vision. Through a comprehensive examination of art song, the study unveils the intricate interplay between cosmopolitanism and local politics and culture. Comprising a total of 20 essays, this book offers overviews of art song development written by scholars from each of the five regions of Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, and Australia, showcasing a diverse range of perspectives and uncharted historiographies. By engaging with the songs of our neighboring countries, regardless of cultural and linguistic barriers, The Art Song in East Asia and Australia, 1900 to 1950 encourages us to embrace a trans-colonial perspective, recognizing the historical constraints faced by art song composers while also celebrating their expressions of musical modernity. This volume appeals to a wide audience, including musicologists, ethnomusicologists, singers, musicians, and scholars engaged in the study of modernity in the fields of poetry and history, operating within local, regional, and transnational contexts.
