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

Ce n'est plus le poids de ma chaine 
qui me fait pousser des soupirs. 
La seule attente des plaisirs 
fait a present toute ma peine! 

Attends-tu pour payer ma flamme, 
Amour. Que je sois plus epris? 
Tu connais l'ardeur de mon âme, 
En peux-tu retarder le prix?
