Some time ago, I fell in love with the Alegreya family from fontsquirrel.org – they look terrific and are rather narrow in my eyes. There is also a sans serif variant.

It also needs to have serifs (if not clear by the indication in the subject). What do you all use (free or otherwise)?
Well, apart from Minion Pro ...
- default Century Schoolbook,
but I think that's not optimal for lyrics because it's too wide.
Even without condensed variants there are narrower fonts available
- Linux Libertine
Actually I like that very much because it's quite elegant and unobtrusively modern.
Not very narrow either, though
- Old Standard TT
can be used for a rather old-fashioned look
but it's not narrow either, so not 100% suitable for lyrics either.
Bottom line: I am still in need of a good replacement font.
Yours, Simon
