Singing Schumann: An Interpretive Guide for Performers
ISBN: 9780195181975 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Offering the same readability and informed insights in this volume that distinguished his acclaimed On the Art of Singing (OUP 1996), Miller presents a practical manual to help singers and pianists bring Robert Schumann's Lieder to life in performance. He also provides cogent suggestions...
