  abstract: "This volume includes all of the surviving songs by German-American composer, performer, critic, and businessman Herrman S. Saroni (1823/24-1900), who is now most remembered as the owner and editor of Saroni's Musical Times (one of America's first significant music magazines). The entire date range of these songs is 1844-89, but the vast majority appeared in the 1840s and early 1850s. Saroni was among the first composers in America to combine aspects of German lieder and various features associated with popular song, and these works fuse accessibility to amateurs with sophisticated compositional techniques. Despite several indicators of success in his era, Saroni's songs are almost completely unknown today. These works deserve reconsideration and modern performance both for their historical significance and for their aesthetic value. Most of the songs in this edition were published in Saroni's lifetime, but an appendix includes a transcription of an unpublished holograph manuscript song, the original of which is also shown in two plate images"--
