Roger Quilter (1877-1953) is one of England's finest artsong composers and his songs have remained firmly in the vocal repertoire since their appearance in the first half of the 20th century. In these songs he demonstrates an extraordinay skill in setting English poetry and shows what can be achieved within a miniature form.Compiled to mark the 50th anniversary of the composer's death, this volume gathers together 18 of Quilter's songs and duets. In addition to well-known favourites such as 'Now sleeps the crimson petal' and 'Love's Philosophy', it contains several works which have been unavailable for many years, as well as offering three previously unpublished songs for thefirst time.The edition is part of the ABRSM syllabus (grade 7)
