SYNOPSIS
Love Songs is an intimate story about love in five “thematic” movements: pure love, tender love, children’s love, mature love and love for a person who has been lost. The lyrics are sung in five languages: English, French, Serbian, Irish and Latin. There are interludes between the movements in which the phrase “I Love You” is delivered in 100 different languages.
MUSIC DESCRIPTION
While the movements are lyrical, the interludes are more rhythmic, inspired by the colours of these 100 languages, with the singer using various unconventional vocal techniques.
Note: there are two versions available, one for solo a cappella voice, and one for voice and saxophone
