Chatham Baroque @ Westminster: Les Nations

Music from the Time of Louis XIV and XV

Chatham Baroque welcomes extraordinary guest artists Stephen Schultz (baroque flute), Caroline Giassi (baroque oboe), and Justin Wallace (harpsichord) to form a chamber ensemble that one might find at the palace of Versailles. The concert will take you on an elegant musical trip to the years before the French Revolution. You will hear the luxuriant music that defines the French national style, including François Couperin’s Les Nations, a suite from Marin Marais’ Pièces en trio, and the troisième pièce of the Pièces de Clavecin en Concert by Jean-Philippe Rameau.

Tickets may be purchased at the door or online at www.chathambaroque.org. Pick up online tickets in the narthex at Will Call before the concert. All subscribers and advance single ticket buyers will automatically receive a link to the concert video once it is released at no additional charge.

Proof of vaccination, ID, and masks are required for attendance. Read more about Chatham Baroque’s COVID safety protocols on their website.
