		<description><![CDATA[I love&#8230; how Britten&#8217;s simple and pure musical form, fashioned just from ascending scales and a free recitative in the voice, compliments the classical form of the sonnet so perfectly the upward trajectory of the rising octave scales in the piano part which set the scene and punctuate the ideas in the text, giving space [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here are two gentle, intimate Brahms songs where the singer addresses someone younger &#8211; Therese op. 86 no. 1 (text by Keller) and Serenade &#8220;Liebliches Kind&#8221; op. 70 no. 3 (text by Goethe) In Therese the young person&#8217;s eyes have obviously revealed some intense feelings, which read like a delightful and provocative question to the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two enigmatic songs, viewed side by side, seem to have a rapport: Schumann’s Auf einer Burg and Delius’ Twilight Fancies. Here are two mysterious characters who share a similar situation in different ways.  Each dwells high up in a little chamber, cut off from the world. One is a stone statue, impervious to the day to day life going on [...]]]></description>

We&#039;re sure you&#039;ll easily spot the mistake, especially if you follow the words on the Lied and Art Song texts page ...  that&#039;s just nerves getting the better of a singer.  It happens, even when the singer knows the words very well and has performed and recorded other versions of the same text.</itunes:summary>
