Somewhere in this world, there are words that only resonate with me.

Love poems and songs written in the late 15th and early 16th centuries.
Feelings that cannot be answered, love that cannot be touched,
Such pain is enclosed in each word.

An intimate ensemble of voices and ancient instruments will deliver this piece,
A small but sure form of feelings.
Touch me, even if it is only with words.
May this prayer silently reach your heart.

--------

An intimate performance of ancient songs from the Middle Ages to the early Renaissance, interwoven with ancient instruments.
Ayako Ludon's clear voice and clavicitellium, and the deep resonance of the viola da braccio and viola da gamba by Takuya Sakamoto and Kazuko Tsubota, quietly play the sad yet beautiful feelings enclosed in a 15th century love poem.
Please enjoy the moment when the melody and words overlap and gently come close to the listener's heart.
