Editing Musical analysis (section)

===Composition===
Analysis often displays a compositional impulse while compositions often "display an ''analytical'' impulse"{{sfn|BaileyShea|2007|loc=[8]}} but "though intertextual analyses often succeed through simple verbal description there are good reasons to literally compose the proposed connections. We actually ''hear'' how these songs [different musical settings of Goethe's "Nur wer die Sehnsucht kennt"] resonate with one another, comment upon and affect one another ... in a way, the music speaks for itself".{{sfn|BaileyShea|2007|loc=[7]}} This analytic bent is obvious in recent trends in popular music including the [[mashup (music)|mash-ups]] of various songs.{{sfn|BaileyShea|2007|loc=[8]}}
