Tapestry: Michigan Festival of Sacred Music
Tapestry brings its artistic interpretation to Song of Songs, also known as the Song of Solomon. This one-of-a-kind concert features a multitude of interpretations, both sensual and spiritual, in a program of Song of Solomon texts that brings together Jewish and Christian traditions
Song of Solomon, is alternately a richly elaborated compendium of figurative language and an exquisitely sensual portrait of love between a young woman and a young man, set in Jerusalem and its environs in the flush of springtime.Yet the meaning of this text has varied widely in its long, and continuing, history as a vital work of scripture, literature, and music. It is one of the shortest books in the Bible, consisting of only 117 verses and its antecedents are far older, including pre-biblical Egyptian and Assyrian lyrics.
Performers are Cristi Catt, soprano; Laurie Monahan, mezzo-soprano; Daniela Tošić, mezzo-soprano with Shira Kammen, vielle and medieval harp; and Mehmet Ali Sanlikol, duduk, oud, ney, and voice.
