Lyric Cousins Book Reviews
Lyric Cousins by Fiona Sampson Book Summary
Leading poet, critic and former musician explores the 'deep forms' common to both poetry and music
Today, poetry and art music occupy similar cultural positions: each has a tendency to be regarded as problematic, difficult and therefore elitist. Despite this, the audiences and numbers of participants for each are substantial: yet they tend not to overlap. This is odd, because the forms share early history in song and saga, and have some striking similarities, often summed up in the word lyric.
These similarities include much that is most significant to the experience of each, and so of most interest to practitioners and audiences. They encompass, at the very least: the way each art-form is aural, and takes place in time; a shared reliance on temporal, rather than spatial, forms; an engagement with sensory experience and pleasure; availability for both shared public performance and private reading, sight-reading and hearing in memory; and scope for non-denotative meaning. In other words, looking at these elements in music is a way to look at them in poetry, and vice versa.This is a study of these two formal craft traditions that is concerned with the similarities in their roles, structures, projects and capacities.
Key Features
•Sets out a new way to think about both music and poetry
•Doesn’t make its arguments from within or for one particular school of music or poetry but has wide applicability
•Uses each 'cousin' art-form to cast light on the other as a whole: it is not just for poet-musicians, or musicians writing for voice
•A rare 'joint' perspective: written by an award-winning poet who was formerly a professional musician
