A completely new opportunity to discover and study the Swedish romance art for English-speaking singers, pianists and pedagogues. Written and compiled by Kathleen Roland-Silverstein, this unique anthology presents 25 romances written by the most significant Swedish composers of the 19th and 20th centuries.
