Songs by Victor Mass (1822-1884), Including Chants Bretons (1853), and Songs by Georges Bizet (1838-1875), Including Feuilles d'Album (1867)

First Published in 1995. This title is volume 4 in a series comprising nearly 300 romances and mlodies, most of which were composed during the 40 years that saw a blossoming of the romantic spirit in all the arts in France. The composers represented in this volume were of a rather serious turn of musical mind and many of the songs presented seem to have enjoyed the more sheltered success of the private recital to which the critics may not have been invited.
