Hi
I'm looking for a piece of music in this site written for piano, violin, cell and vocals. Is there any one? Or at least a piece for vocals piano and one string instrument (violin or piano).
Thanks in advance
piano trio plus vocals

"Vocals" is rather vague. Anything specific in mind -- including whether text is used?

I prefer if a text is used but since it is for my personal studies it is not indispensable. I've found nothing so any suggestion is welcome. Thanks

There are a lot of Baroque works for singer, keyboard (sometimes playing a reduced string part), one obbligato instrument, and cello where the keyboard part is continuo.
One that comes to mind is Handel's 9 Deutsche Arien for high voice, violin and continuo (keyboard + cello).

There a tons of cantatas for vocals, violin(s) and continuo by Handel. There are also probably hundreds of appropriate arias from Handel operas and oratorios (you don't need a full orchestra, just a violin on the first violin line). All of these are on IMSLP. You should also explore the arias within the hundreds of Bach cantatas, also on IMSLP. As you move out of the Baroque, it becomes more difficult to find pieces for your ensemble.
