An anthology of 21 newly commissioned Australian art songs by eight composers for low voices, composed to address the paucity of repertoire especially for alto, contralto and bass.

Vol. One comprises 10 songs - three songs and one song cycle - for mezzo- soprano, low mezzo-soprano and mezzo-contralto, composed by Houston Dunleavy, Clare Maclean, May Howlett and Larry Sitsky, with works edited and with pedagogical material for the singer and singing teacher by Cathy Aggett. Vol. Two contains songs written for the contralto and bass by composers John Wayne Dixon, Paul Paviour, Diana Blom and Gordon Kerry.
