Welcome

Here you will discover all aspects of the music of Donald Swann both as a serious and a light composer. You'll find a wealth of documentation not only about AT THE DROP OF A HAT and AT THE DROP OF ANOTHER HAT in collaboration with Michael Flanders, but also about Donald Swann's artsongs, song-cycles, cantatas, sacred music, children's shows, operas and much, much more.

We'll bring you the latest news about new recordings and publications. Any questions not answered in these pages can be addressed to his archivist, Leon Berger, at: leonberger@donaldswann.co.uk
