    Excellent Resource for Voice Students

    This 'The French Song Anthology' for low voice is superb for my intermediate students. The 'clean new engravings' make it a joy to read, reducing eye strain. The 'medium-difficult' level challenges them appropriately, and the detailed notes plus 'line-by-line translations' are invaluable for teaching diction and interpretation. A truly comprehensive and pedagogically sound collection.

    Solid Classical Anthology for Performance

    For classical recitals, this 'The French Song Anthology' is an excellent, comprehensive resource for low voice. The arrangements are standard, perfect for accompanying. Be aware, this classical collection doesn't include chord symbols, and at 320 pages, strategic page turns are a consideration for live performance. Still, an indispensable collection for serious classical work.

    A Treasure Trove of French Art Songs!

    I absolutely love this 'French Song Anthology'! As an adult learner, the 'intermediate' difficulty is achievable with practice, making me feel really accomplished. Having beautiful songs like 'Clair De Lune' and 'Apres Un Reve' in one book is fantastic. The 'line-by-line translations' are a game-changer for really understanding and enjoying the music. Highly recommend for any dedicated hobbyist!

    Essential for Low Voice Coaching and Performance

    This anthology is a must-have for any vocal coach or collaborative pianist working with low voices. The 'low voice' range is well-served by this extensive collection. The 'piano accompaniment' textures are beautifully crafted, providing essential support without simply doubling the vocal line. The comprehensive notes and 'new line-by-line translations' are unparalleled for guiding nuanced interpretation and diction.
