Yellow Barn Concert series continues Wednesday in Hammond

Posted

HAMMOND - The group Cantiga will be the next featured performers on Wednesday, July 12, at 5 p.m. for the 2023 Yellow Barn Concert series hosted by the Iva Smith Memorial Gallery of Fine Art, 627 State Highway 37.

Tickets cost $10. Children 12 and younger listen for free. High school students attending for an assignment are admitted free. No one is turned away.

Cantiga's unique, magical music has delighted visitors to Renaissance Festivals across North America for close to 30 years.

The word CANTIGA means 'song' in the language of Alfonso the Wise, the legendary 13th Century Spanish "King of the Three Religions" whose royal court was a haven for Christian, Muslim, and Jewish musicians.

Following in their tradition, the members of Cantiga are dedicated to the inclusive spirit of musical improvisation that has flourished among musicians in cultural crossroads throughout history and continues to be celebrated in today's diverse Global musical village.

The group is comprised of Alexander Korolov, on lute, recorders and viola da gamba; Martha Gay, harp; Thomas Nuendel, violin; Dan Grip, Bass.
