Charles K. Harris, "After the Ball" and "The Last Farewell"

I have published the essay Text and Music in Two Songs by Charles K. Harris on the Texas ScholarWorks platform. Here is the link: Harris.

Here is the abstract:

 In 2021, SMT-V, an online journal of the Society for Music Theory, published a video essay by Michael Buchler, Professor of Music in the College of Music, Florida State University. It’s titled "I Don’t Care if I Never Get Back: Optimism and Ascent in 'Take Me Out to the Ball Game'.” In this essay I examine similar songs from the era: Charles K. Harris, “After the Ball” (1892) and “The Last Farewell” (1903).
