MUSEUM CONCERT – PROVIDENCE

A FRENCH HARPSICHORD SALON with BYRON SCHENKMAN

First Unitarian Church, Providence

Purchase concert tickets online, here

This Harpsichord Salon features a bouquet of delights
from the final flowering of French harpsichord music.
 

Music by Jacques Duphly, who died one day after
the storming of the Bastille, combines the luscious harmonies of courtly French music with the virtuosity and
popular appeal of newly fashionable Italian concertos.

Enjoy the compositions of Jacques Duphly,
plus Marie-Emanuelle Bayon, Joseph Boismortier, François Couperin  Élisabeth Jacquet De La Guerre.

“Byron Schenkman fairly stole the show…
intense and commanding yet effortless and virtuosic”
– Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
