All About Love
“Sappho begins with a sweet apple and ends in infinite hunger.”
(From “Eros the Bittersweet”, by Anne Carson)

Too often throughout history, we’ve seen women’s love and desire depicted through a male gaze, while authentic expressions of love and desire by women in art have been considered taboo. Cappella Clausura challenges this by centering voices of women and gender non-binary composers in this program on the topic of love in all its forms. Romantic verses by Sappho, Elizabeth Barret Browning and Pablo Neruda set by composers including Evelin Seppar, Modesta Bor, Rafaella Aleotti, Laura Nevitt, and others.
