Masterpiece Edition-Franz Schubert was born in Vienna in 1797. He was involved in music at an early age learning music theory and many different instruments including piano violin organ and voice. During his brief but prolific life he wrote a wide variety of music. His compositions included symphonies piano sonatas piano duets operas masses chamber works and several hundred songs. Among the hundreds of songs the most loved and revered is Ave Maria. Ave Maria was first published in 1826 under the German title Ellen's Gesang 111: Hymne and die Jungfrau (Ellen's Song 111: Hymn to the Virgin). The text used was taken from a novel written by Sir Walter Scott entitled 'Lady of the Lake'. It was then translated into German as it appeared in Schubert's song. After Schubert's death in 1828 the Latin text began being used and eventually surpassed either the use of the German or English text. 'Antiphon of the Blessed Virgin' is a text which has been used in religious contexts since the beginning of Christianity. This vocal classic was originally envisioned as a devotional piece but over time the magnificent beauty of both music and text has made this song equally popular for secular performances. Schubert's Ave Maria arranged for High Voice is recommended for Soprano or Tenor ranges. We have included a separate vocal line with lyrics written in Latin just above the piano accompaniment stave(s). The English translation is also included to explain this fabled story. This Minstrel Press Edition of Schubert's Ave Maria for High Voice is exclusively distributed by Santorella Publications.

Hector Berlioz's Song Cycle (The Summer Nights) is based on poems by Theophile Gautier. Though their subjects have little direct connection each song possesses the sultry scented charm implied by Berlioz's title. The tenderly expressive qualities of these settings makes one wish that Berlioz had continued his dedication to French poetry. The English version of the text is given by Bernard Taylor.

A wonderful collection of Seven Early Songs from Arnold Schoenberg. Six of these songs were discovered together in a manuscript which now resides at the Arnold Schoenberg Institute in Los Angeles. Unfortunately many of the surviving copies of the songs were used as performance copies and none of them reached publication. Brought together for the first time in over 100 years these songs have been returned to their former glory by editor Leonard Stein. In the original German with English translation.

Ten Spirituals arranged by Moses Hogan for solo voice and piano. Moses Hogan has added his own unique contribution to the deep river of the Negro spirituals. As is evident in the songs of the Deep River Collection in his work are fused the harmonic sensibility honed by his years as a student and practitioner of classical piano literature his love of the human voice and his musical roots in the African-American Baptist church.

Originaltonarten für hohe Stimme. Written in 1885, the eight songs after texts by the now little-known poet Hermann von Gilm have a special place in Richard Strauss? corpus of Lieder. For the first time, he composed an entire set of songs on texts by a single poet, collecting them into one opus that was also to appear in print. Some of the numbers in it, like ?Zueignung,? ?Die Nacht,? and ?Allerseelen,? are among the most popular Strauss songs of all time, but the entire cycle with its well-planned structure is also worthy of closer examination and performance. The aspiring composer quite consciously aligns himself with the tradition ranging from Schubert to Wolf, choosing the highly Romantic subject of unrequited love and illuminating its most diverse facets. The primary source for the Henle Urtext edition is the first edition from 1887, which Strauss furnished with a dedication to the Royal Bavarian chamber singer Heinrich Vogl - a serious invitation to today?s male singers not to leave these wonderful Strauss songs solely to female singers!
