The Penguin Book of English Song by Richard Stokes

Draws together a great variety of English poetry (including Irish, Scots and Welsh writers) that has reached a wider audience through the magic of music.
Richard Stokes is Professor of Lieder at the Royal Academy of Music. His previous books include The Book of Lieder and J. S. Bach: The Complete Cantatas and he is co-author of A French Song Companion and The Spanish Song Companion, all of which are much admired by musicians and concert-goers. His English versions of Wozzeck, Lulu, Parsifal and La Voix Humaine, and his translations from Kafka, Kleist and Jules Renard, have also been widely acclaimed.
