There are discrepancies between the booklet tracklist and the tracklist on the back cover. The Op. 55 songs on track 2 are Gesänge, songs and chants in the booklet; on the back cover they are Lieder, and so designated in the translated English and German titles as well. The Elizabeth Barrett Browning sonnet settings (tracks 4-8) are dated 1934 on the back cover, 1935? in the the booklet. On track 11, Wellesz's Symphonischer Epilog is accurately translated as Symphonic Epilogue in English and Epilogue Symphonique in French on the back cover; instead of supplying the French title, the booklet simply repeats the English one.
