Hi Trevor, I'm not completely familiar with the opera yet (although I recently came across a recording), but whatever your voice-type, you're likely to find an appropriate aria in the little known opera by Heinrich Marschner "Hans Heiling". My understanding is that the story has been retold in various incarnations by the Brothers Grimm. I don't have the liner notes sitting right here in front of me, but if you're interested, I can dig them out and give you more information on which fairy tale the opera would be based on.
I suspect that Karen will have a wonderful list of appropriate songs as well, that might be a bit more accessible than Hans Heiling would be.
