Also a professional singer, Lambert has extensive experience in the field of church music, and has sung with some of the most important choirs in the United Kingdom and the United States, including those of St. John’s College Cambridge, San Francisco’s Grace Cathedral, and the Church of the Advent in Boston.
Love Cures: Healing and Love Magic in Old French Romance (psupress) is by Laine E. Doggett, associate professor of French, which traces the healing of love back to the romance stories of the Middle Ages.
