The Red Cockatoo & Other Songs

A terrific collection that brings together nine of Britten’s previously unpublished songs, written over a period of 25 years from 1935 onwards. Many were originally intended to be part of song-cyles but were cut during the final revisions. This edition includes a helpful introduction and information regarding each song. Titles: A Poison Tree * Birthday Song for Erwin * Cradle Song * If Thou Wilt Ease Thine Heart * Not Even Summer Yet * The Red Cockatoo * When You’re Feeling Like Expressing Your Affection * Wild with Passion.
