I’ve included a variety of selections from live performances and studio recordings for you to listen to. There are art songs and arias from 19th century composers including Richard Strauss, Bellini & Rimsky-Korsakoff. There are also 3 pieces from 20th century composers, Copland, Britten & Barber. Lastly, I’ve included a jazz standard by Hoagy Carmichael and a cover of Sarah McLachlan’s hit from the 1990’s, ‘Angel.’
