John Reed's Schubert Song Companion provides clear and literal translations to the more than 600 known Schubert lieder.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Companion..., July 15, 2007

S�bastien Melmoth (H�tel d'Alsace, PARIS) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Schubert Song Companion (Paperback)

.
For those who have the time and intellectual inclination, suggest you pair this book with Schubert: Lieder and go through the whole Schubert lieder experience, combining poetry, music, and criticism: a worthy pursuit of the best of humanity--amid the wrack and ruin of civilization in the 21st Century New Dark Age.

Good, could be better. It should include the orinal German. But as far as I know there's nothing else.
