The Seasons (New Edition)

(Music Sales America). Edited with a new English translation by Michael Pilkington. The English translation in this edition is entirely new, and attempts to provide a translation of van Swieten's text that fits Haydn's music. The style used tries to give some flavour of eighteenth-century language while being easily intelligible today, being an eighteenth century work. Arranged for soprano, tenor and bass soloists, SATB and orchestra. English/German edition.
