Her Sophie (Rosenkavalier) is legendary the world over, as are her Mozart roles of Susanna (Figaro), Pamina (Zauberflote). Ms. Bonney devoted much of her 30 year career to Lieder, and continues to sing Lied-Recitals and Orchestral Concerts.

He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon". His surviving works, including some collaborations, consist of 38 plays 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and several other poems. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.

The Willow Song from Othello, Act IV, Sc. III
Words by William Shakespeare
Music by Michael Kamen
The poor soul sat sighing by a sycamore tree
Sing willow, willow, willow;
Her hand on her bosom, her head on her knee,
Sing willow, willow willow;
The fresh streams ran by her and murmur'd her moans
Her salt tears fell from her and soften'd the stones.
Willow, willow, willow;
Sing all a green willow must be my garland.
Let nobody blame him; his scorn I approve.
I call'd my love false love; but what said he then?
If I court more women, you'll couch with more men.
