The “Love Song Project” shows off the talents of 3 artists visiting from Portugal.   These evenings will introduce American audiences to the inspiring music of some of Portugal’s best contemporary composers.  Highlighting these evenings are the beautiful love songs for voice, piano and cello set to the texts by Portuguese and Brazilian poets along with selected instrumental works.  This recital promises to be a memorable musical experience.
 
The program will highlight the works of Brazilian composers Claudio Santoro and Heitor Villa-Lobos and Portuguese composers Antonio Pinho Vargas and Fernando Lapa.  The program shows off different approaches to the theme of Love, conceived by composers who lived decades apart.
