Samuel Barber: A Thematic Catalogue of the Complete Works is the first publication        to list the entire musical output of Samuel Barber, one of the most beloved and        frequently performed American composers. In this exhaustive study, renowned Barber        biographer Barbara Heyman chronologically lists and details hundreds of core        repertory and the most recently published works, as well as numerous works        previously unknown and unpublished.Each entry includes information about first        performances, commissions, and the circumstances and inspiration of the composition;        the texts of songs; a musical extract containing the opening measures of each work,        movement, or major aria; duration, revisions, editions, arrangements, and a select        discography of historical and contemporary performances. The descriptions of        manuscript sources provide details about the hundreds of holograph manuscripts,        sketches, drafts, and significant publisher's proofs with Barber's corrections.          Entries are enhanced by Heyman's extensive commentary, which draws from Barber's        correspondence, interviews, and diaries. Useful appendices to the catalogue comprise        a register of works by genre; an alphabetical directory of works; an index of first        lines of vocal works; a listing by nationality of authors and translators of texts        set by Barber; and a comprehensive discography.This thematic catalogue is an        invaluable guide for musicians, scholars, and students, providing an essential        foundation for any serious study of Barber and his music.
