St. James Cathedral, 804 9th Avenue, Seattle
The biblical Song of Songs (or Song of Solomon) holds a central place in both the Christian and Jewish traditions. Its sensuous imagery of love and longing has inspired poets and composers through the ages. Boston soprano Laurie Monahan and the choir will present medieval settings of texts from the Song of Songs as well as new settings by composers Karen P. Thomas and Shira Kammen. Ms. Kammen will also be playing medieval fiddle and harp.
