There is a "mock" song by Purcell called "When First Amintas". Very suggestive, very funny, and suitable for a high voice to sing. I've only ever seen it in the complete works. but it is possible that it is available in another form as well. If you're looking there anyway, you might want to check out the rest of his "mock" songs as well (they are in the same volume of the complete works, I believe).
Good luck!

Vocalist, I have just been scheduled to sing an all Baroque program with only conintuo, on APRIL 1, next year!!!!
I once posted to the list for music specifically for high voice and continuo, and have since then, been researching and trying out repertoire...
Now I am reposting - asking if any of you are aware of repertoire that is humourous, or could fit under a "foolish" title (not so sure what kind of title I can come up with here)... for such a recital.
Thanks very much!
