Peggy replied to Bryan's request for German Art song literature. In addition to the great suggestions Peggy made, I would add the new German Art song book published by Alfred Publishing, edited by John Glenn Paton who also edited the 26 Italian Art Songs, Mozart and Mendelssohn songs, etc. Looks like a good comprehensive collection with great translations, IPA, sources. It also comes with an accompaniment CD.
Good luck, Bryan.
