A Winter Romance takes you on a journey through romantic Latin music of Italian and Spanish origin. Watch up-and-coming sopranos, Luisamaria Hernandez and Jessica Bloch, and the talented pianists Shalun Li and Harriet Hung as they perform songs of love and heartbreak.


A Winter Romance delves into all aspects of love, both happiness and pain. The program opens with Jessica Bloch, soprano and Shalun Li, piano performing the Italian composer Mauro Giuliani’s (1781-1829) Sei Ariette Op.95 (1816) written originally for voice and guitar, but later adapted for voice and piano. The author of these poems was Italian poet, Pietro Metastasio (1698-1782), who was well celebrated during his time. The first piece deals with love lost, the second piece is about the agony over admitting love for someone, the third piece is about wondering if the love will last, the fourth piece is about love’s desire, the fifth piece is about infidelity and the pains of love, and the last piece is about healing from infidelity. The second half of A Winter Romance will be performed by Luisamaria Hernandez, soprano and pianist Harriet Hung.

Luisamaria and Harriet take you to Latin America, the Caribbean, and Spain where “A Winter Romance” focuses on passion, reflection, heartbreak, and wonder. The music takes a look at love not just for an individual, but for an idea or a country. Luisamaria and Harriet hope that listening to this repertoire will spark your interest in these beautiful stories. This program truly proves that regardless of the time or place, love can be felt by all.
