In this volume are 40 songs, charming and varied in mood, ranging over Mozart's entire career. Included are many longtime favorites with singers and audiences, among them such gems as "Abendempfindung" (K.523), the sportive "Die Alte" (K.517), "Sehnsucht nach dem Fruhlinge" (K.596), and "Das Veilchen" (K.476), an exquisite setting of Goethe's poem. Reproduced from the authoritative Breitkopf & Härtel edition, this volume includes line-for-line translations of all German, French, and Italian texts.
