A fascinating collection that casts new light upon an undervalued 19th-century genre. Women composers Maude Valérie White and Liza Lehmann feature prominently. Of special interest is a selection of songs from Arthur Somervell’s Tennyson cycle of Maude.

Any individual work from this volume is available in printed or digital (PDF) format on request (archive@stainer.co.uk).
