Our first Brunch. Been contemplating offering this for a while.
Featuring the return to the series of the extraordinary vocalist, Bon Singer. Bon founded the renowned chorus, Kitka and is one of the foremost vocalists and teachers of Eastern European women's music. This time she is accompanied by another friend of the series, Diana Rowan, a harp player who has appeared on the series before. Expect some truly gorgeous music from these 2 brilliant women.
