Harumi Shibayama (soprano) and Takashi Tsunoda (lute/oud) will perform a program of love songs that transcend time and region, beginning with 13th century Spanish cantigas and continuing with Sephardic anthems and 17th century Italian works by Monteverdi, Merla and others. Known for their delicate ornamentation and deep emotion, the two ensembles will highlight the dialogue between voice and strings in the soft acoustics of the church, quietly resonating in the hearts of the listeners.
