Песня - любовь моя

Ada Yakusheva is a legend of art song. Her songs are “light, pure, responsive, charming... They had a short first life. Born on the disastrous edge of a great feeling, they sang at once, in one short exhalation, and - the string burst, Ada no longer sang...” (D. Sukharev).

And the songs live and do not become less loved and popular over time. For the first time, this book presents the work of Ada Yakusheva quite fully, including songs, poems and memoirs. In the new edition of her memoirs “If You Knew,” she recalls many people with whom her life and journalistic fate brought her together. Her statements about the work of bards, the peculiarities of art songs, song festivals and competitions are interesting.

The sheet music appendix contains the notes of twenty of the most famous songs by Ada Yakusheva. About all this and more in the book Song is My Love (Ada Yakusheva)
