Acrpost: A Project of the Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres

Event Description

A journey deep into the heart of winter, deep into the heart of Christmas. Musicians in medieval attire play harps, flutes, drums, bells and an assortment of rare 12th century instruments. Hand drums, tambourines and temple bells provide the back drop for both traditional and well-loved carols. The group’s focus is the unique and hauntingly-beautiful integration of the world’s three oldest instruments (harps, flutes and percussion) with rare medieval instruments, poetry and song. Winter Harp features poet Alan Woodland, classical harpist Jill Whitman, Celtic harpist and singer Lori Pappajohn, medieval instrumentalist Joaquin Ayala, percussionist Lauri Lyster, flutist Kenichi Ueda and child performers Emilie Whitman and Shylo Sharity. Tickets: $20 Available at Munro's Books,... more...
