As a part of the collection of love songs for the prizewinning LIEDERPROJEKT, several new arrangements have been created for soprano and string quartet that can be heard on the two Liebeslieder CDs (83.028 and 83.029). The arrangements are by Andreas N. Tarkmann, emeritus professor for instrumentation and arrangement at the Mannheim University of Music and Performing Arts. Four English songs make up the main part of the collection: Purcell's If music be the food of love and Morely's It was a lover and his lass as well as the two folk melodies Down by the Salley gardens and Greensleeves. In contrast, the painfully beautiful Finnish folk song Kukkuu and the slow pavane Belle qui tien ma vie, from the pen of Thoinot Arbeau, are included. It is a coronation for all musically oriented wedding feasts! Score available separately - see item CA.240800.
