She considers the text setting in JS Bach's B Minor Mass and those by German and Italian composers before and after him, such as Caldara, Bertoni, Zelenka, Vivaldi, Lotti, Mozart, and Haydn. She takes into account the ideas of theorists past and present, analytical techniques of rhetoric and semiotic theory and whether they are suitable for this type of music, and influences and transmissions of settings.
