Subject:  RE: [vocalist-temporary] the most beautiful songs


What a great question! Especially since the older I get, the less I'm
willing to squander my time singing things that aren't beautiful!

Thanks for the question and for your suggestions. Here are some of mine:

Chausson: Le Temps des Lilas
Schubert: Der Jungling an der Quelle
Schumann: Nun hast du mir den ersten Schmerz gethan
Debussey (? - too tired to look it up!): Les berceaux
Donaudy: O del mio Amato ben
de Falla: Nana
Barber: The Crucifixion
Barber: The Desire for Hermitage


Best!

Laura Sharp

"I'd be interested to know what songs (no arias, please) you consider to be
the most beautiful (in terms of the complete package--melody, text and
accompaniment)."
