- In 2005-2006, noted baritone Thomas Hampson collaborated with the Library of Congress in an 11-city Song of America tour, celebrating creativity in America. This companion Web site documents the history of American art song through holograph manuscripts, vintage sheet music, copyright deposits, and recordings from the Library's rich and diverse collections. Two videos made during the tour feature Hampson in recital and coaching a master class.
