Publisher's Synopsis
. . . in die Saiten reiß ich . . . " (I pluck my strings . . . ) - the ideal motto for this collection is found in the very first song, Der Musikant" (The Musician) . Ansgar Krause's stylistically impeccable guitar arrangement makes an eloquent case for the transcription of Wolf's Lieder, especially those from the Italienisches" and Spanisches Liederbuch". All songs can be comf Ortably performed by a voice in the middle range. It is common knowledge that voice and guitar sound well together. But why should this combination remain the special reserve of singer-songwriters? We have decided to arrange a number of suitable songs from the Baroque, Classical and Romantic eras for this combination.
