What
would love be without
music - or music without
love! Many couples
associate unforgettable
beautiful hours, a first
meeting, or first kiss
with a particular song.
And composers have always
been inspired and
stimulated by love, have
celebrated romantic love
and longing from afar,
secret love, and
jealousy. In her
selection of 80 songs
from seven centuries,
Mirjam James evokes this
tremendous feeling with
the most beautiful songs
ranging from medieval
courtly songs, through
Beethoven's Ich liebe
dich, to the Beatles song
And I love her. Many of
the songs come from
German and English
language traditions, but
what would such a book be
without the fire of
southern Europe or a dose
of French charm, without
the moving melodies of
cool northern climes, or
the melancholy songs of
the Russian soul? A vocal
score has been published
which contains all of the
the songs in the new
Carus book of lovesongs
in easily playable
accompaniments. For many
of these songs choral
settings by famous
composers such as John
Dowland, Thomas Morley,
Thomas Tallis or Thoinot
Arbeau have been adopted,
wherever possible, in
their original form. In
addition, well-known and
familiar original
settings by Beethoven,
Brahms, Benjamin Britten,
and other composers will
be found in this
collection. Songs with
entirely new
accompaniments have also
been included, resulting
in a collection of
lovesongs offering a
distinctive stylistic
variety suitable for many
different occasions.
