The best resource to get the wheels turning when you're looking for repertoire. Organized by show. Each song is annotated with the name of the character who sings the song, the vocal range, and a style category, such as uptempo, narrative ballad, swing ballad, moderate character piece, etc. Several indexes are supplied, organizing the songs by voice type (soprano, baritone, etc.) and song style, vocal arrangement (duets, trios, chorus, etc.), and composer and lyricist, allowing increased access to the repertoire.

Are you looking for one more song to put in your recital set about bananas, love, or monkeys? The Great Song Thesaurus has a keyword index so you can find songs by topic, rather than just by title.
