Frank Bridge composer thirty-five of his fifty-six songs with piano accompaniment betweeen 1901 and 1908. The early songs are the most conservative portion of Bridge's output certainly in his choice of text if not in musical stlye.

This edition is based on the critical edition of The Barber of Seville edited by Patricia B. Brauner and published in 2008 as part of the series Works of Gioachino Rossini. But who needs a new critical edition of The Barber of Seville? The opera has been performed in theatres throughout the world since 1816 and has never been absent from the repertoire. There are two reasons for a critical new edition: firstly none of the early editions satisfy modern demands for a scholarly-critical edition. And secondly there is a wealth of previously unpublished material relating to this opera of great interest to both scholars and performers.Thusthe famous overture which Rossini had already used in his earlier opera Aureliano in Palmira differs noticeably from earlier editions in many places. The new edition enables performers to perform the overture either in its original scoring (as in Aureliano in Palmira) which includes two Flutes two Oboes and Timpani or in the scoring for the subsequent opera The Barber of Seville (with just one Flute one oboe and no Timpani).Urtext edition based on the series Works of Gioachino Rossini.All versions and transpositions are included in the appendix to the study score.Singing English translation in the vocal score.Takes into account all original sources including five manuscripts with Rossini’s autograph ornamentation.Takes into consideration the full extent of Rossini’s personal notational characteristics.Study score contains a detailed foreword (Eng/Ital)Full score (BA10506) critical report (BA10506-40) & study score (TP411) available for sale; performance material (BA10506-72) available for hire.

Selected Songs chosen by Francois Le Roux-Widely acclaimed by music lovers for over a century Selected Songs of Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924) are here collected into an anthology complete with an audio version in the form of a download card. Excerpted from the 1st collection published in 1879 Au bord de l’eau and Ici bas bestow an aura of internal reverie on Sully Prudhomme’s simple poems made palp­able by the harmonic refinement and vocal fluidity that constitutes the very essence of Faurean charm.    Several vocal pages selected in the 2nd volume (1897) continue to be favourites: Les Rosesd’Ispahan restored to their dreamy stillness Les Berceaux whose oscillation evokes the swaying of boats and the very nostalgic Clair de lune in which Verlaine’s words set to music for the first time inspired Fauré to write what would become one of his masterpieces: La Bonne Chanson.    From this cycle drunk on lovelorn lyricism the collection retains Puisque l’aube grandit an exalted melody if there ever was one and La lune blanche luit dans les bois a nocturnal landscape in F sharp major – two pearls that distil the same mystery of solace.

Gustav Holst has earned a place among the most revered of late 19th and early 20th century composers and is best known for his enduring Orchestral suite The Planets.But before that great work in his use of Englsh folksongs Gnostic texts and these Vedic hymns one can discern Holst’s search for a compositional Voice beyond the constraints of the European canon in the early 1900’s. Some see composition of the Vedic Hymns as a turning point in Holst’scompositional life. The quality is not completely consistent and Holst remained true to his Western musical inheritance for the most part in setting them but as art songs they are deeply felt and moving to hear.The nine songsare scored for mezzo-Soprano or baritone Voice. The texts are taken from the Rigveda one of the four sacred texts of Hinduism and the oldest religious text in the world.The first set of three comprises Ushas Varuna and Maruts or Dawn Sky and Stormclouds respectively. The second includes Indra (God of Storm and Battle) Varuna II (the Waters) and Song of the Frogs. The third group moves into the human sphere with Vac (Speech) Creation and Faith.
