ILLUMINATIONS weaves inspirations from ancient book making with ritual dance movements and Renaissance vocal forms.  The listener may sometimes feel they are hearing a lute or a gamba.  Says Friedlander, “I’m always trying to tell a story with my playing and in ILLUMINATIONS it’s all about a world that’s lit by candles and has the smell of leather and parchment.”
