"An art song is a vocal music composition, usually written for one voice with piano accompaniment, and usually in the classical tradition. By extension, the term ""art song"" is used to refer to the genre of such songs. An art song is most often a musical setting of an independent poem or text, ""intended for the concert repertory"" ""as part of a recital or other relatively formal social occasion""." schubert-auf_dem_strom schumann-An den Mond
