We wanted to explore all kinds of music, fromVivaldi arias to Neapolitan dances, from American hymns to Sephardic melodies, and to discover songs filled with beautywhich our two instruments could express.We offer here a collection of songs of the spirit, music which has taken us beyond ourselves as we’ve played it and broughtus to a special luminous place. Since each melody has its own origin and meaning, we have included some descriptions, texts,and performance ideas.We hope that these songs will give you as much joy as they have given us.— Paula Robison and Frederic Hand_______________________________________See also "Notes by Paula Robison" on the individual pieces in this work on pages two and three.
