PhilaLandmarks Early Music Series: The Publick Pleasure

AMOUR ET MÉMORIE: A Salon of French Philadelphia at the Hill-Physick House
Join us at the Hill-Physick House on February 13th at 7 PM for the PhilaLandmarks Early Music Series with The Publick Pleasure. AMOUR ET MÉMORIE: A Salon of French Philadelphia. Philadelphia has always been alight with French influence. Indeed, 18th century Philadelphia was bathed in 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 century French home in Philadelphia. Music of Duport, Barriere, Corrette and others.
