Tours is a new collection of thirty-eight previously published songs by the leading composer ballads in the twentieth century. Tours' songs for voice and piano were central to the development of the British and American ballad tradition and occupy a middle ground between the Victorian ballad and post-Romantic art song. This facsimile edition makes his finest songs available for the first time in one volume along with a biography, critical commentary, and detailed information on his career in the music industry. Prepared in collaboration with the production division at A-R Editions, this handsome volume presents the life and work of Frank E. Tours in a definitive edition that will become an essential resource for anyone seeking to study and perform his music. Tours' romantic and spiritual ballads were composed with impeccable craftsmanship and offer voice students and teachers in particular a body of songs in English that are expressive, challenging, and meaningful. We believe this book will make a significant contribution to British and American song literature, not only by reintroducing Tours' music to the public, but also by bringing attention to the ballad tradition itself, which has been overlooked since World War II. Frank E. Tours was a leading music director for operettas and musicals during the first half of the twentieth century. Throughout his career as a conductor, he was also a prolific composer of songs for voice and piano. Over a thirty-year period, he set more than seventy lyrics to music, while most of his evenings were spent in the orchestra pits of London's West End and Broadway. - Publisher. 650 0 $a Songs, English $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Ballads, English. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85011235 650 0 $a Musicals $v Vocal scores with piano. $v Vocal scores with piano. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008108139 600 10 $a Tours, Frank E., $d 1877-1963. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n87896255 650 0 $a Composers $z England $v Biography. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008101436 650 0 $a Conductors (Music) $z England $v Biography. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009121332 650 0 $a Ballads. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85011228 655 7 $a Vocal scores. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014027206 655 7 $a Parts (Music) $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026986 655 7 $a Arrangements (Music) $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014027203 655 7 $a Excerpts. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026097 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026049 700 1 $a Davis, Eric, $d 1966- $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2022029964 $e editor. 700 1 $a Thorsett, Brian, $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2022029973 $e editor. 941 $a 3 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214030030.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230722011931.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220506012600.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=41BA435CB4A811ECBDCF981B5BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
