(Vocal Collection). This is the most serious and useful collection yet published of solo arias from oratorios, masses and cantatas. The literature was confined to work by major composers, and by-passes the dated oratorio literature found in previous collections. The most famous music is here, and so is interesting and less famous music by masters. There are new music engravings for each aria, and extensive historical notes and translations. Solo instrumental obbligato parts, which can be cut from the book, are included on appropriate selections.

Good selections

This collection has been around for a while and remains an excellent choice for both singer and pianist. The selections are well chosen and the music clear and easy to read. As always, when new, this book offers up a monumental battle to keep it open while playing - a tough spine I suppose.

Love this book!
I completely agree with the two reviews below about the book being difficult to hold open. However, you could easily break the binding the put it in a binder yourself, or copy it and have it as sheets.
This anthology has wonderful pieces for alto soloists, and I strongly recommend it to anyone who is looking for alto solo pieces!

Oratorio Anthology, soprano

Great price on this anthology. HOWEVER, this needs to be marketed in a spiral binding format for us keyboard players. Had to play with one hand holding the book open -- not very practical.
