The contents of this book are not available through the online library catalogue so the only way to access it is to use the Song Index. Searching under the English title no works came up.īut searching under the German song title there was a reference to the song score in the book The Unknown Kurt Weill - although the lyrics are only in German. Not able to find a score by searching the Library's catalogue I turned to the in house Song Index that is available only at the Performing Arts Department of the Toronto Reference Library. When you are searching for song titles by Kurt Weill, who wrote originally in German, it sometimes helps to search the German title as well as any variations of the English title, eg. When I did a search in the catalogue for "The Ballad of the Soldier's Wife" and Weill only one record shows up (did you know we still have about 17,000 records and also several record players to listen to LPs at the Toronto Reference Library?).Ī CD by Teresa Stratas also comes up if you enter the German title "Und was bekam des Soldaten Weib". This is where the 40,000 music scores in the Performing Arts Department can often help in conjunction with our online catalogue and the department's Song Index card catalogue. While lyrics are easy to find using basic Google or other online internet based searches, sheet music and piano vocal scores are harder to find online. Recently someone asked for the score of a Kurt Weill song, " The Ballad of the Soldier's Wife ".
