Philadelphia has always been alight with French influence. Indeed, 18th century Philadelphia was lavish with French culture: French language, dance, food, clothing, boarding houses and names. After the French Revolution and the Slave Rebellion in the French colony of St. Domingue, Philadelphia became a landing place for a large number of French refugees. Join us for a concert that explores love and memory -  modeled as a salon of an 18th c French home in Philadelphia. Music of Rameau, Barriere, Corrette and others.

With: Eve Miller, cello; John Walthausen, harpsichord; Alissa Magee, voice
