Revision with unchanged content. What should I perform? This book is to serve as a study guide of twenty-five works for the dramatic soprano voice with orchestra.

There are examples of works dating from 1787 through 2004, and include song cycles, monoperas, monodramas, scena and arias, symphonic rhapsodies, cantatas, symphonic cycles, and lyric tragedies.
