Miscellany Of Songs 珀瑟爾
本冊彙集了普賽爾五首以前未曾發表的聲樂作品。布裡頓為每首曲子都考慮到了特定的演唱者。低音提琴的變奏極具個人風格，反映了布裡頓對珀賽爾音樂的喜愛。布裡頓在這些變奏曲中運用了 "普賽爾所有音樂中閃耀著的清晰、溫柔和奇異的混合物"。(布裡頓和皮爾斯在他們的第一卷普賽爾改編曲的序言中這樣寫道）"

原文簡介:
This volume brings together five previously unpublished realisations of vocal music by Purcell. Britten prepared each piece with specific singers in mind. The realisation of the figured bass is highly personal in style and reflects Britten's afiinity with the music of Purcell. Britten has applied to these realisations 'something of the mixture of clarity, tenderness and strangeness which shines out in all Purcell's music.' (a remark made by Britten and Pears in the preface to their first volumes of purcell arrangements)
**ABRSM selected piece (Singing from 2009): The Knotting Song ‘Hears not my Phyllis’ (Purcell)
