Favorite ABO soprano Hannah De Priest and virtuoso lutenist Lucas Harris draw listeners into the Salons and Taverns of London for an intimate romp of English ballads and lute songs intertwined with zesty instrumentals for two violins, cello and continuo. Our candlelit stages add fire and warmth to our program that will surely drive the cold winter away!”
Praise for our guest artists:
“The revelation of the concert was the Torontonian lutenist Lucas Harris, who weaved a poetic thread through his infinitely subtle interventions. The sweetness and patience of his playing . . . was astonishing.” (Le Devoir)
“From the first notes she sang, De Priest immediately distinguished herself with her versatility of vocal color, dramatic engagement, and textual clarity.” (Chicago Classical Review)
