Does anyone have a good duet for a baritone/baritenor and a soprano?

I have a whole book of baritone/soprano duets.........it's called The Best of Broadway for Vocals and it has a few good ones in it
Look at golden ages duets. Back in the days when leading men were sung by baritones and their duets are written as such. Some of the classics like "People Will Say We're in Love" or "Make Someone Happy" "Stranger in Paradise"

I got nothing off the top of my head, but if you go to the web site for Music Minus One, they have background CD's specifically titled by voice part. You should be able to get a couple dozen ideas there. Good luck!

I immediately thought of "Stranger in Paradise" or for a more incredibly obscure choice from Kismet, "Rahadlakum" (I think my cold medicine made me suggest that! hehe). Other thoughts include
"Say it Somehow" from The Light in the Piazza
"Almost Like Being in Love", "From This Day On" from Brigadoon
"Too Many Mornings" from Follies
"They Were You", "Soon It's Gonna Rain", "Metaphor" from The Fantasticks
"No Other Love" from Me and Juliet
"A Man and a Woman", "You're Not Foolin' Me" from 110 in the Shade
"If I Gave You' from High Spirits
"Our Private World", "I've Got it All" from On the Twentieth Century
"Seeing Things" from The Happy Time
"How Could I Ever Know?" from The Secret Garden
"Yours, Yours, Yours" from 1776
Hope this helps,
