The First Book of Mezzo-Soprano/Alto Solos - Part II

The First Book of Mezzo-Soprano Alto Solos Part II is a vocal collection edited by Joan Frey Boytim that brings together 37 songs for mezzo-soprano and alto voice with piano accompaniment. Featuring works by composers including Handel, Mozart, Bach, Schubert, Liszt, Schumann, Gounod, Massenet, Quilter, Purcell, and others, this collection is designed for singers, voice teachers, accompanists, studios, and music programs seeking a varied selection of classical and art song repertoire.

The volume presents a broad range of vocal literature, including art songs, sacred selections, folk-inspired works, and traditional favorites. With no duplication between voice types in the series, singers may use this collection alongside companion volumes or as a standalone source of repertoire for lessons, recitals, auditions, studio work, and performance preparation.

Each selection includes vocal melody, lyrics, piano accompaniment, and introductory material. The carefully chosen repertoire exposes singers to a variety of musical styles, languages, historical periods, and expressive traditions.
