Use the searches below to search for albums, songs, or recording sessions. Each type has its own search, just choose your criteria and click the Go button.

Each search has multiple options to use. You can select a value from one or more options or you can type a keyword for your search.

When you select more that one option, the search will combine them: option 1 and option 2.

Let’s look at some sample searches for Harold Arlen songs as an example:

1. If you search for Composer = Harold Arlen, you will get a list of all songs written by Harold Arlen.
2. If you search for Composer = Harold Arlen and Lyricist = Yip Harburg, you will get a list of all songs written by Harold Arlen where Yip Harburg was the lyricist.
3. But, if you search for Composer = Harold Arlen and Lyricist = Oscar Hammerstein, you won’t get any results, as Hammerstein never wrote any lyrics for Arlen.

I hope these examples help. But if you need more help using the searches, use the comment form below and I’ll be happy to help you or try to implement your suggestions for improvements.
