A Panorama
of Songs fills a want
that has been felt for
decades. A selection of
songs in six European
languages from the 16th
to the mid-20th century
encompassing every
musical period, it seeks
to help beginner-level
students of voice
teachers and repetiteurs,
and foremost the singers
themselves. The series
brings a breath of fresh
air and new works to the
conventional Lied
repertoire, truly
offering a new panorama.
Using the means of modern
technology it also
provides immense help in
learning and performing
the songs. The three
volumes of the series are
arranged by level of
difficulty, and all of
them are available for
high and low voices (a
volumes for high voices,
b volumes for low
voices). Each volume is a
complete unit in itself,
including all six
languages (English,
French, German, Italian,
Russian, and Spanish) and
presenting a
cross-section of styles
from the early Baroque to
the 20th century.
Interpretation of the
songs is facilitated by
literal English and
Hungarian translations of
their texts, and the
reading of the Cyrillic
script is assisted by
transliteration (again in
English and Hungarian).
Ornamentation suggestions
for the performance of
the Baroque works are
also included. The
printed music is
accompanied by additional
useful material to help
the learning process,
available online at
www.emb.hu/downloads. The
website contains the
piano accompaniments of
all of the songs, as well
as all the original texts
recited by native
speakers.
