ISBN 1423421574. 9x12 inches. Benjamin Britten/edited by Richard Walters.

This landmark publication includes 61 songs, combining the contents of the seven published books of Britten folksong arrangements in High and Low Voice editions. Some of the songs have never before been transposed. The songs of Volume 6, for voice and guitar, have been transcribed for voice and piano for this edition.

“Editor Richard Walters has done a splendid job of bringing this collection to publication, not only assembling the material but also writing an excellent, informative, and thought provoking Preface that gives insight into Britten's life and work...Having all these songs together in one volume is a real boon to voice teachers and students alike, not to mention accompanists...All music libraries and voice studios will want to own this collection.”--Journal of Singing

    Hello! I did recive from Sheet Music Plus the scores, on time. I shpuld use the royal mail because I am in Argentina, and the post here is not very reliable. Now I have the two scores of Britten folksongs arrangements and I am rehearsin witn the pianist and enjoying...

    them a lot. Great music! both, the melodi, folkloric, and the arrangement, from Briteen's genious mind and heart! We will perform them at the Teatro Colon in Buenos AIres, 19, 20 & 21 July 2012. Thanks a lot for your services, I'll come back to you as much as I need. sincerely Victor
