Martin Pluddemann was a pivotal figure in the revival and modernization of the art of ballad composition. He revered Carl Loewe and Richard Wagner and this confluence of influences allowed him to explore the close relationship between ballad, opera and 'music drama,' not least through the use of Leitmotifs, quasi-orchestral accompaniment or in the piano anticipating or recalling the vocal line. He set the finest poets- Uhland, Muller, Goethe, Heine, and Burns among them- and shows a comprehensive mastery of the genre, whether in themes of medievalism, nationalism, the supernatural, or in his delightful essays in humor.
