La Serenata

Through the years, Paula Robison and Frederic Hand have been drawn to the full-hearted sound of classic Italian song and to the rich folk traditions of Italy. It is their great pleasure to present this collection of some of their favorite melodies in these new arrangements for flute and guitar. Here they serenade us with nine Italian love songs from opera and popular traditions, ranging from Puccini's O Mio Babbino Caro and the beloved Santa Lucia to lesser-known gems of the Baroque era. The publication includes background and lyrics for all the songs as well as Robison's phrase marks and Hand's fingerings.
