Description
Excerpt from The Russian Song Books, Vol. 2: A Selection of Songs From the Works of Russian Composers; Songs for a Soprano Voice
The Russian Song Books do not claim to consist wholly of gems Of classical music, nor yet of that class Of lyric known in England as the popular ballad. An attempt is here made to combine both elements, and to cater for varied tastes and interpretative capacities. Examples by leaders of the Russian School are included in the series, and also a few songs by minor composers which are great favourites in their own country. In each case the words have been translated direct from the Russian, and represent an effort to echo as faithfully as possible the sense and sentiment of the original texts.
The following details respecting the composers Of these songs, treated in alphabetical order, may be Of interest to singers.
