Join us for an evening of songs by Michel Lambert, Étienne Moulinié, and Antoine Boësset as we explore courtly airs for voices and lute. Airs de cour – songs of the court – were a genre of secular song popularized at court and salon gatherings in 17th century France. While on the face these songs seem simple, they are supremely sophisticated and elegant, offering both singer and listener an intimate connection with the poetry. We look forward to sharing this program in Philadelphia just after the New York performances.
