{{Short description|Song cycle by Samuel Barber}}{{Italic title}}Hermit Songs is a cycle of ten songs for voice and piano by Samuel Barber.

H. Auden, Chester Kallman, Howard Mumford Jones, Kenneth H. Jackson and Seán à Faoláin. The Hermit Songs received their premiere in 1953 at the Library of Congress, with soprano Leontyne Price and Barber himself as pianist.JOURNAL, Allen, William Duncan, Musings of a Music Columnist, The Black Perspective in Music, 1, 2, 107â114, Autumn 1973, 10.2307/1214445, 1214445, The ten songs of the cycle and the respective translators of each poem are as follows: - the content below is remote from Wikipedia
