The New Penguin Book of English Folk Songs
Autor Julia Bishop, Steve Rouden Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 feb 2014
One of the great English popular art forms, the folk song can be painful, satirical, erotic, dramatic, rueful or funny. This magical new collection brings together all the classic folk songs as well as many lesser-known discoveries, complete with music and annotations on their original sources and meaning. Published in cooperation with the English Folk Dance and Song Society, it is a worthy successor to Ralph Vaughan Williams and A. L. Lloyd's originalPenguin Book of English Folk Songs.
