Lyrics of the most famous art songs from throughout Europe are presented with English translations in this invaluable text. The poetry is from some of the greatest poets including Goethe, Heine, Ibsen, Pushkin, Verlaine, and more. The editor has contributed critical commentary that helps explain the relationship between lyrics and music and notes on each poet and composer.
