Hi there, How about:
1. The Serpent by Lee Hoiby (from his Songs for Leontyne) 2. Of Gods & Cats by Jake Heggie in his book "The Faces of Love". The book says the songs are for mezzo and piano, but they don't seem too low for a soprano. a) In the Beginning b) Once Upon a Universe 3. There are other sets in the Jake Heggie book, including "Paper Wings" which includes "Bedtime Storm" and "Mitten Smitten", the set called "Songs to the Moon" which has pieces called "What the Rattlesnake Said", "The Haughty Snail-King", etc.
If you'd the lyrics to any of these pieces let me know. I'll be happy to post them.
