I need at least ten famous collaborations in music, literature, and the arts. So far all I can come up with is Merce Cunningham and John Cage, and more recently, billy Joel and Twyla Tharpe.I know that there are tons of others, but I can't recall them. Please help me out.

I am in a Shakespeare class for college right now, so it makes it a bit easier. 10 Favorite: Katharina from The Taming of the Shrew, I have read Elizabeth from Richard III, which I have also read Ursula from Much Ado About Nothing, which I read in high school and do not remember, but I like the name Diana, which I have not read Helena from A Midsummer Night's Dream, which I have read Isabella from Measure for Measure, which I have not read That's about all that I really like and could picture naming my child. 1. Least favorites are: Dorcas, Perdita, Paulina, Gertrude, and Hippolyta. 2. Offhand, I believe it is Jessica and Portia from The Merchant of Venice. For some reason, I did not like there characters in this play. I really did not care for The Merchant of Venice, minus the task that Portia's father lays out for her would-be suitors, I did not like the play that much at all. 3. As stated above, the merchant of venus. 4. As listed in names that I like: I have always loved the name Elizabeth, and therefore, I liked the Queen Elizabeth in Richard III. It is kind of sad how she relives the grief that poor Queen Margaret had to feel. Plus, Shakespeare made her two sons very witty. Pitty they had to die, too. This is by far the best question I've seen in this section.
