I've thought of doing something like this with Victor Herbert's song
"Art is Calling for Me," with another soprano friend. If well staged, we
were hoping to make it a kind of "duel" too - topped with cadenzas (in
appropriate and not appropriate places), and maybe some interjected lines
that are spoken as the other soprano is singing..... Right now it's just a
thought though!
