English Songs: Renaissance to Baroque: The Vocal Library High Voice

English Songs: Renaissance to Baroque is a high voice vocal collection featuring 34 English songs by renowned Renaissance and Baroque composers, including Dowland, Purcell, Handel, Arne, Campion, Morley, Gibbons, and others. Part of The Vocal Library series, this collection provides vocal sheet music and online audio accompaniments, making it a valuable resource for singers, vocal instructors, and performers exploring English-language repertoire from these influential musical periods.

The collection includes recorded piano accompaniments by Laura Ward, accessible through a unique online code included with the book. The accompanying recordings can be streamed or downloaded and feature PLAYBACK+, an interactive audio player that allows users to slow down audio without changing pitch, set loop points, change keys, and adjust left-right balance for flexible rehearsal and performance preparation.

Edited and arranged by Richard Walters and Steven Stolen, the repertoire serves as an excellent alternative or companion to traditional Baroque Italian songs and arias.
