Songs for Soprano and Piano

on: April 21, 2006, 03:32:23 AM

Schubert and Schumann wrote a lot of songs. Where can i find the sheets?

What other composer(s) wrote good songs for Piano and Soprano?

The masterpiece tell the performer what to do, and not the performer telling the piece what it should be like, or the cocomposer what he ought to have composed.

Debussy C'est l'Extase

About languorous ecstasy and the feelings after making love. It would go well with some Scriabin middle period pieces that deal with similar ideas.
