For each song you will find a reliable Spanish version, an accurate translation and notes on the essentials: explanations of the grammar, verb tenses, and idioms plus interesting information on the composer, the recording artist/s, and the historical background and cultural underpinning of each song.

Notă biografică

The author, Robert S. Thomson, holds a PhD from Yale U. in Romance languages. He has written three other books on the subject of studying lyrics: "Great songs for the English Classroom" (inspiring students to write about personal issues via a close study of thematically rich popular songs. 1980). "Italian for the Opera" (1990, 150 pp.) and "Operatic Italian" (2009, 460 pp.) use parts of speech as the framework to guide the reader to a deep understanding of opera libretti. Both books use hundreds of extracts from operas to illustrate their points and these extracts serve as an effective memory aid. Many aspects of libretti are touched on: author, librettist, theme, plot, characterization, style, connotation, etc. See www.godwinbooks.com for more details. "Operatic Italian" had stellar reviews in NATS, "Opera America", etc. See them on www.godwinbooks.com
