Singers attempting to lay the foundation for a repertoire will find this guide especially useful. It contains four main sections: selections from songs and airs before the 19th century; 19th- and 20th-century songs; folk songs; and operatic excerpts (mainly 19th century). Entries indicate pitch and the type of voice for which the air is most suitable, and include a short description of the characteristics of the song or air, limited for the most part to its tempo, the character of its vocal line, and its general mood. Paper edition (unseen), $39.95. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
