Title: A real treat for choral music fans!
Review: I bought this set because it was highly recommended in American Record Guide.The first disc is devoted to the Moravian Duets, mostly for female voices. Disc 2 includes choruses and duets for mixed voices and Russian Songs. Disc 3 finishes the set with choruses on Lithuanian folk songs, choruses for male voices, and choruses for female voices. It ends with a lovely choral version of the Largo from the New World Symphony: "Home of Mine. My Sweet Homeland."Complete texts and translations are included. Most of the lyrics concern joyful, longing, and heart-broken young lovers in rural settings. Many of the songs depict birds singing, harvest activities, flowers, and dancing. This is a most satisfying collection for any who love good choral music.
