Flute and Baritone pieces are very hard to come by (you'd have much more
luck if you were a mezzo/alto). This said, there are some pieces that
have no gender designation (I am presuming you will also have piano
accompaniment):

G.F. Handel: Revenge, from ALEXANDER'S FEAST - for bass, trumpet, continuo
(sort of the basso equivalent of Let the Bright Seraphim)

Vivan Fine: The Great Wall of China - for voice and flute

John Corigliano: Three Irish FOlksong Settings for Voice and Flute (not
sure if this is high voice or medium voice)

Philip Glass: Changing Opinion - voice, flute, piano (not sure if this is
high or medium voice)

Jacques Ibert: Aria - voice, flute, piano

Jacques Ibert: Deux steles orientees - voix et flute

Hans Werner Henze: Heilige Nacht - fuer mittlere Singstimme und
Blockfloete (medium voice and recorder, or flute, oboe, or violin)

Daron Hagen: I Stop Again - voice and flute

Daron Hagen: Silently Dispersing voice, piano, flute

Substitute piano for harp/guitar:

William Mayer: Passage - for voice, flute, and harp

Miriam Gideon: Creature to Creature - for voice, flute, and harp


Voice and Trumpet:

Emma Lou Diemer: And I saw a new heaven and a new earth (Revelation 21) -
medium high voice, trumpet, and organ or piano

Robert Starer: The Mystic Trumpeter - medium voice, trumpet, and piano

Joji Yuasa: Observations on Weather Forecasts - baritone and trumpet
