{"product_id":"richardson-let-spring-come-other-songs","title":"Richardson: Let Spring Come \u0026 Other Songs","description":"\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Australian writer Henry Handel Richardson (1870–1946) was christened Ethel Florence Lindesay Richardson: she adopted a male nom de plume in anticipation of professional prejudice. Although she made in international reputation as a novelist, she first trained as a pianist and wrote songs all her life – but they remained unpublished, so that her output as a composer has been completely overlooked until now. Her songs are straightforward and melodious, drawing their inspiration from Romantic German Lieder and Edwardian drawing-room ballads, lullabies and parlor songs in the manner of Bridge, Ireland, Quilter and other such composers.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Toccata","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":49606674514200,"sku":"5060113446299","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/4041868-2788232.jpg?v=1777638339","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/richardson-let-spring-come-other-songs","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
