Sharon Quattrin is one of Chicago's few rising young operatic sopranos who retains a genuinely intimate air in chamber settings. This weekend she'll participate in a concert of Jewish music ranging from Sephardic love songs to Copeland pieces in an inexpensive concert at KAM Isaiah Israel. KAM is the oldest congregation in the midwest, and their beautiful Hyde Park synagogue is a historic landmark worth a visit itself.
