New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

Marchese del Orco
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Willst du die Meine sein, biet' ich dir Kronen, 
als Fürstin sollst du mir zur Seite thronen! 
Darf ich mich zeigen, willst du sein mein eigen, 
so sende mir den Ring vom Herzensfinger, 
es harrt dein um Mitternacht der Überbringer.
