Heart to Harp: An Autoethnography of Music and Meaning. A Senior Capstone Project by Caroline Lacitignola.
Join us on April 22, 5:30–6:30 PM at Devine Theatre (no registration required). This lecture-recital explores the harp as both a musical instrument and a powerful symbol, drawing on Caroline’s original senior capstone research.
Tracing the harp’s evolution from its origins to its place in contemporary performance, the program examines how history, spirituality, and social meaning have shaped the instrument. Through performance and reflection, audiences are invited to consider not only how the harp sounds, but what it does—how it transforms spaces and mediates experience.

Join us next Friday for Fado Meets Persian Music! Reserve your free ticket at the link in our bio. Cristina Clara is a Portuguese singer whose work draws inspiration from traditional Portuguese songs, including Fado, and from the musical traditions of other Portuguese-speaking countries such as Cape Verde and Brazil. Joined by guitarist Pedro Loch, she brings a repertoire shaped by oral tradition, poetic nuance, and a contemporary sensibility. In partnership with Iranian composer and multi-instrumentalist Behfar Bahadoran, this concert creates a dialogue between Portuguese and Persian-rooted musical languages, tracing shared emotional depth, subtlety, and openness to reinvention.
