Description

35 songs by Kentucky-born John Jacob Niles, one of the most loved American vocal composers, whose songs are a staple of contest solo lists. 11 songs have been added for the 2015 expanded edition. Includes Gambling Songs and a collection of Niles' Appalachian Carols, as well as a preface by and biographical notes on the composer.

New in the 2015 Revised and Expanded edition: The Blue Madonna • Calm is the Night • Careless Love • Reward • Wayfaring Stranger • The Cherry-Tree • Lulle Lullay • Down in yon forest • Jesus the Christ is born • The Seven Joys of Mary • See Jesus the Saviour

“These two lovely volumes for high and low voice are the result of years of growing scholarship around the work of a composer often slighted...We are fortunate indeed to have this latest generous edition, offering as it does a wealth of material for recital and pedagogic purposes. The inclusion of Niles's own notes from the original edition are particularly moving.”--Journal of Singing
