From Santa Fe, Laurianne Fiorentino, originally from Northampton MA, delivers a musical experience bordering on ritual and ceremony.

Nominated for Artist Of The Year by the National Academy of Songwriters (LA), Critics' Choice at NXNE (Toronto) and FolKrawl (Memphis), and festival hit at The First Southern Roots & Blues Festival (Tasmania, Australia).

Laurianne's Bamboo flute, harmonica, and invented vocal music has been included in movie and live theater soundtracks.

Her current Elemental Concert Series with cellist Michael Kott takes the audience through the Periodic Table of Elements—one element at a time—where traits of the elements are correlated with human traits.

Critics have hailed the imaginative Michael Kott as a "transgalactic electro-cellist." The uniquely gifted musician is an accomplished virtuoso who has been perfecting his mastery of the cello since the age of nine. Truly an extraordinary player, Kott has received wide critical acclaim and has been the recipient of numerous awards for his original compositions and his recordings. He has toured extensively as a performing artist. He is a teaching professor at the College of Santa Fe.
