Dear List, I have a copy of this book. It includes the texts and translations (English) of ALL the "Arie antiche." Unlike the Paton/Alfred it is not a song book. It is extremely useful. The format is such that there is room on the page for students to transcribe the text into IPA. When the query regarding translations of some early Italian pieces came up in the last few weeks I simply couldn't recall the name of the work and was too lazy to drive to the U. to my studio. (it's vacation!) Thanks to the internet and my recollection of the publisher's name you, too, can enjoy this useful collection of translations. Cheers, Cindy Donnell |
