(Vocal Collection). An excellent volume of coloratura arias has been added to the G. Schirmer Opera Anthology series. With 30 arias in English, Italian, German, French and Russian, this is the largest collection of coloratura operatic excerpts ever published. Because of the nature of the material, tradition-based performance suggestions are liberally found throughout the volume. For instance, you will find standard vocal variations for the "Doll Song" from The Tales of Hoffmann included in the edition, along with the original vocal line. Like the other volumes in the ground-breaking series, there are historical and plot notes about each aria, new engravings, and new translations for study.
This authoritative, new edition of the world's most loved songs and arias draws on original manuscripts, historical first editions and recent research by prominent musicologists to meet a high standard of accuracy and authenticity. Includes fascinating background information about the arias and their composers as well as a singable rhymed translation, a readable prose translation and a literal translation of each single Italian word.
Arias sung and loved by the greatest singers of the world are here in fresh, new versions. This edition: draws on original manuscripts and historical first editions, along with recent research of prominent musicologists, to meet a high standard of accuracy and authenticity; enhances your enjoyment of the arias with fascinating background information about their original appearance in cantatas and operas, and about their composers; corrects hundreds of errors -- even incorrect words, notes and composers' names -- which have accumulated as past publishers copied from each others' editions; removes Romantic era misinterpretations and 19th-century piano accompaniments, restoring the clear, bright sound of Baroque music. It will be easier than ever to learn the arias because the use of the International Phonetic Alphabet symbols removes doubts about correct pronunciation. It will be easier to sing the arias with meaning because the original Italian texts are translated into English in three ways: 1. a singable rhymed translation 2. a readable prose translation and 3. a literal translation of each single Italian word for those who are learning the language. - Back cover.
Michael Nyman: Songs & Arias presents sixteen songs and seven arias for high voice and Piano from across Michael Nyman’s varied and exhilarating output: songs from his celebrated film scores, like The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover; from recent operas like Facing Goya; several concert song cycles, and two songs that stand independently. There can be few music lovers today who do not immediately recognise Nyman’s distinctive instrumental writing. But, until now, they may have been less familiar with the vocal music that forms so important a part of his creative personality. The wide range of sources from which Nyman draws the inspiration for his settings, including Rimbaud and Celan set in their original languages, fragments of Mozart, Pessoa and contemporary poets, demonstrates a composer of unusual learning and lively interests. This book is an important resource and extension to the repertoire of any high voice singer.
