Guest Artists
*Grant Herreid, tenor, lutenist, and windplayer, is a versatile musician on the early music scene, performing with several groups, including Hesperus, Piffaro, Ex Umbris and Artek. He has been music director for many productions of the Mannes Camerata in New York City, and for the Amherst Early Music Festival.

**Violplayer Jane Hershey teaches at the Longy School of Music, the Powers Music School, and directs the Tufts University Early Music Ensemble. She studied at Longy and at the Hague Conservatory with Wieland Kuyken. She performs with many groups on the East Coast including Emmanuel Music, Arcadia Players, Handel and Haydn Society, New Quartet and Hesperus and with violplayer Laura Jeppeson.

The singing soars, capturing the joys and melancholy of Renaissance Spain…and the instrumentals are nothing less than inspired. Lanterns of Fire is one of the best compilations of Spanish vocal music available.
