Contents: As cheers the sun * And shall my sin-stain'd soul * Author of Peace * Ah! Think what ills * Alas! Erastea * Banish love from thy breast * Beneath the Vine * Bless'd the day * Capricious man * Daughter of Gods * Endless pleasure, endless love * Faithful cares in vain extended * Guardian Angels * Hide me from day's garish eye * My heart with tender pity swells * Me, when the sun begins to shine * No more shall armed bands * No, no, I'll take no less * Oft on a plat of rising ground * O killing shock of unexpected pain * O lovely youth * Sinners, lifts your eyes and tremble * Straight mine eye hath caught new pleasures * Together lovely innocents.

Exceptional singer Reynaldo Hahn (1875-1947) owes his early successes to the ?songs for voice and piano? genre, whose raison d?etre he defines in his journal as follows: ?To highlight a poem, word for word but without uniformity; to emphasize its meaning without distorting it; to shine light upon one idea, obscure another and present it all in vocal, sung form; to produce a sharp, precise sensation by touching a heartstring or evoking an image - all in a well-structured and tastefully written piece?. Enhanced by an audio version attached as a download card, this anthology of songs should dispel a good many misconceptions. This is no salon miniature: L?Heure exquise radiates an infinite tenderness, exalted by the high vocal cadences of O Bien-Aimee! and C?est l?heure exquise, which surely wrought tears from the author of the verses, Verlaine. Tyndaris, the jewel of Heures latines, clears a crystal-clear space given over to the delights of slumber and of love. Like D?une prison and Cygnes, these songs do more than wet the eyes: they grip the heart..
