4 out of 5 stars The Ring of Words...great help in the studio   May 10, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I've read and studied from many books with translations of texts to lieder and song literature, but I can say that the layout of this book is what a singer needs. Phrase by phrase is made understandable and visually it helps to have the original on the left and the translation on the right, it helps me to memorize faster.
The information about the composers who have handled these texts is most interesting and helpful in program planning. My students who are not fluent in German and French have found that they now can handle the subtleties of the songs and song cycles they are preparing.
