The program will be a mix of traditional folk songs from Cyprus and contemporary chamber music. Socrates Leptos, guitar, will accompany Ms. Loizou in a set of little-known folk songs, followed by a performance of Cypriot Songs for Maria Jane, a chamber music piece dedicated to her by the composer John Sarkissian. Scored for flute, harp, viola, cello and soprano, the song-cycle is a lively half-hour of folk-based contemporary music. After the concert, there will be an opportunity to meet the artists.
