I completely agree with Justin.
35mm and 90mm would cover most needs.
You can then add either a wide or super wide angle lens or on the contrary another onthe telephoto side once you're comfortable using the 35mm and 90mm - and have the cash!
If you don't need the really wide apertures, I'd recommend going with the 35mm Summicron (f/2.0)and the Elmarit 90mm (f/2.8).
I recommend the Elmarit for several reasons:
1. Excellent quality lens
2. Much cheaper than Summicron 90mm
3. f/2.8 is still a pretty decent maximum aperture (Worth extra cash to you for the 1 extra stop?)
4. At 90mm and f/2.8, you can still get the depth of field effects you will be looking for in your portrait shots or whatever
