Among the selections are a Gregorian hymn; an English lute piece; operatic arias; instrumental and vocal motets; a French ballad; as well as works by Vivaldi; Telemann; Pergolesi; Scarlatti; Buxtehude; and other masters.

TODDDDDDD!!!!By Susan Neufferas a long time Todd fan; it is so wonderful to have these songs in one book. my only objection is that there is a preponderance of songs from "Something/Anything". For most people that is a great thing; but I am such a fanatic that I already own the music book to that classic work of genius; and I would have liked more songs from other albums. But to have the music to "Just One Victory" is heaven on a piece of paper!!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.
