Songs to the poems of Robert Burns translated by Samuel Marshak for baritone and Mezzo-soprano. Notes

Collection/cycle "10 Songs for the voice with piano "(6 for baritone and 4 for Mezzo -soprano) was written on verses by the classic of Scottish poetry Robert Burns (1759-1796) in translations of the Russian poet, translator, playwright, author of many books for children Samuel Marshak (1887-1964) The publication has two texts: Russian and English. In their structure, the songs are written in a budget form. In the 2nd song, the Building Composition is mixed with the features of Rondo due to the appearance of new episodes, in the 8th mixed with a three-part composition with a developing middle. All songs are permeated with variation and variant changes, and the developed techniques are due to a specific semantic context. The author hopes that his work will find the way to the hearts of performers and listeners
