He has published widely on 19th- and early 20th-century music, and has lectured and performed as a pianist throughout North America and Europe. Sharon Krebs holds degrees in human physiology and Germanic Studies. She is active as a singer and performs frequently in Canada, the United States, and Europe.

"Long overdue, a skillful blend of biography and musical analysis, with rewarding, close, and sensitive readings of many of Josephine Lang's Lieder, her acknowledged 'diary.' The Krebs' research should go a long way toward reclaiming an unjustly neglected composer and reminding us how much of nineteenth-century musical life remains terra incognita."--R. Larry Todd, Arts & Sciences Professor, Duke University, and author of Mendelssohn: A Life in Music
