The Songs of Edvard Grieg by Beryl Foster
Comprehensive survey of Grieg's 180 songs, considering particularly questions and issues of performance.
All is admiration for a study which, as well as fulfilling those old cliches 'essential' and 'important', is most readably writtenMore than being just a guide to the songs, it becomes en route one of the most perceptive, and detailed, books in English on the composer yet published. * GRAMOPHONE *
Beryl Foster's authoritative study can claim to be the most thorough investigation of this repertoire yet to have appeared in English, and is likely to remain the standard work on the subject for many years to come. -- Robert Layton * TLS *
