Cinnamon Bird with special guest Kane Mathis

With duo vielles, Shulamit Kleinerman and Ruthie Dornfeld bring to life medieval lais and cantigas: tales of love, morality, and adventure spun at the courts of Europe's nobles. Join Cinnamon Bird for this special collaboration:ย  Kane Mathis represents the centuries-old West African tradition of the Mandinka bard, whose songs transmit history, current events, eulogies and love stories with the mesmerizing sound of the 21-string kora.ย  As traditions meet in music, story and song, tales intertwine and instruments encounter each other in the landscape of the narrative imagination. Come and join these three musicians as they bridge culture and history with the power of the human story.

Tickets: $20 general, $15 seniors, $10 Students and NUUC members, available online, by phone, or at the door on the evening of the performances.

Free parking in the church parking lot.
