Book Synopsis
Argues that Schubert envisioned many songs as components of cyclical arrangements that were never published as such. By studying Schubert's original manuscripts, Kramer recovers some of these distant cycles and accounts for idiosyncrasies in the songs which other analyses have failed to explain.
