Mittlere Stimme / Medium Voice-As a continuation of the new Urtext edition of the Schubert lieder Walther Dürr has now edited volume five for high medium and low voices. Volumes 1 to 4 of this edition contain mainly lieder which Schubert himself saw into print (in his own choice and order) and in the fourth volume works from the last two years of his life are included. The lieder in volume 5 onwards are strictly presented in the order of Deutsch's Thematic Catalogue which means that in principle they are arranged chronologically.The lieder in volume five were composed in the years 1811 to 1814. The first 'Hagars Klage' (D 5) dated 30 March 1811 is also his first complete surviving song. Thefirst eleven lieder are evidence of his early studies (1811 1813/14). During this period Schubert immersed himself in Johann Rudolf Zumsteeg's ballads and lieder and wrote Italian arias during his composition lessons with Antonio Salieri. He also composed a single strophic song ('Klaglied' D 23) which the only one of these songs was published shortly after his death in November 1830 as op. 131 3. His apprentice work as it were was the major ballade 'Der Taucher' (D 77) which was composed between 1813 and roughly the beginning of 1815. Probably not by chance his first complete opera ('Des Teufels Lustschloss' D 84) was written at the same time. He also set fourteen poems by Friedrich von Matthisson exploring the principle of the strophic lied.- Excellent new engraving based on the 'New Schubert Edition'- Foreword by Walther Dürr discussing the history the works? compositionand transmission together with a list of sources for each song (Ger/Eng)- English translation of the song texts by Richard WigmoreContents:Hagars Klage D 5 / Leichenfantasie D 7 /Der Vatermörder D 10 / Klaglied op. post. 131 3 D 23 / Misero pargoletto D 42 (high voice only) / Totengräberlied D 44 / Die Schatten D 50 / Verklärung D 59 / Pensa che questo istante D 76 (medium and low voice only) /Der Taucher D 77 / Son fra l?onde D 78 (high voice only) /Adelaide D 95 / Trost.

Most of the arias in this collection were written in the 1600s and 1700s by composers who were intent on expressing their feelings and entertaining their listeners. They wrote for the present and didn't write many instructions for their performers as they would always be present when their music was performed. However the success of their music transcended their lifetimes and over the years editions have become nothing like their original forms. This edition seeks to return to the composers' original intentions and produce an authoritative and faithful re-production of their works.Includes an accompanying CDof professionally recorded backing tracks.

Pour voix moyenne ou grave et piano-?For as long as there are poets there will be songs. If someone was to put on my tomb: ?Here lies Francis Poulenc musician to Apollinaire and Éluard?: that really would be my finest claim to fame ? the composer declared in 1945. Right from boyhood his attraction to poetry was practically equal to his love of music. And in fact the young Poulenc took to song-writing quite naturally starting in 1919. Poulenc compiled a catalogue of 150 songs a body of works of consistently high quality containing great diversity that marks him out as the last major exponent in this genre. This volume is a selection of Poulenc?s best-known titles in both original and transposed key for highand low voice with new engravings it includes original poems and English translation. This edition belongs to ?Musique vocale française? a series devoted to French vocal repertoire both in original and transposed key designed for students and teachers as well as professionals.

Six Poetic Songs-Donald Swann is best known as one half of the comic duo Flanders and Swann who dominated the West End and Broadway stages in the late 1950s and 1960s. Though less recognised he was also a leading exponent of the lyric song having reinterpreted the English art-song tradition exemplified by Parry Quilter Warlock and others in his own distinctive and exotic way. This second volume of his songs for Medium Voice and Piano features a range of styles and moods that fit with the diversity of the poems he has set and demonstrate his sensitivity to the setting of texts to music. These Practical Versions of Swann’s ever evolving songs are a wonderful insight into thecomposer’s ability and justify his place in the canon of English song.

After Schubert?s death in 1828 his brother Ferdinand passed on thirteen songs based on texts by Ludwig Rellstab and Heinrich Heine to the publisher Haslinger. Schubert had only composed them shortly before his death in August 1828. During his lifetime Schubert actually wanted to publish the two groups of Lieder separately. However the Heine and Rellstab songs are indeed closely related. Haslinger added a fourteenth Lied ?Die Taubenpost? based on a text by Johann Gabriel Seidl which Schubert had composed at the same time as ?Der Hirt auf dem Felsen? (D 965) one month before his death but which in no way bears any relation to the Rellstab and Heine Lieder. Thiscollection was published posthumously by Haslinger early in May 1829 and it was named Schwanengesang traditionally the term given to an artist?s last work before his death. This collection is here presented in an authoritative Barenreiter Urtext Edition for Medium Voice.Based on the Urtext of the ?New Schubert Edition?Foreword by Walther Dürr about the genesis and history of the works and the available sources for each individual Lied (Ger/Eng)English translations of the Lied texts by Richard Wigmore
