This anthology, part of an ongoing series by this author, contains 29 songs by 19th-century Castilian composers, selected for artistry of song setting, melody, and charm of the indigenous Spanish style. The edited and translated anthology provides a repertoire for recitals by beginning and intermediate singers. A companion volume (sold separately) contains the songs transposed for high voice.
