A collection of 30 choral songs for SATB unaccompanied, both secular and sacred. Diversity and eclecticism are the hallmarks of this collection: the pieces range from two to eight voices; from monuments of the Renaissance to miniature canons from the Romantic period. There are notes on each piece, and prose translations for non-English texts.
Edited by John Gardner and Simon Harris
