Many regard Stephen Foster as the greatest 19th century American composer/lyricist of popular song. Included in this set are 35 tracks of Foster’s most popular and enduring songs together with a fine selection of his lesser-known works.

Nelson Eddy, the massive selling, screen idol baritone, recorded these superb Robert Armbruster orchestral arrangements that reflect Stephen Foster’s 19th century time period.

Compiled and annotated by Robert Nickora.
