Frage und Antwort – Art Songs of Joseph Marx

Advanced Voice Class Recital
Linda Noble Brown, instructor

Continuing the tradition of Lied, Joseph Marx (1882-1964) was considered by many to be the successor of Hugo Wolf. His songs have broad melodic lines and thick accompaniment textures, full of the high romanticism and sensuality that was popular in Vienna in the early 20th century. As a scholar and critic, he coined the term “atonality” even as he eschewed its practice in his own compositions.
