French Baroque Duets for Two sopranos
with:

Please join us for a special concert of early 18th-century French music for two sopranos and continuo. We are self-presenting this concert at the wonderful 303 Bond Theatre, home of Company XIV. We will be performing sacred motets by François Couperin and Nicholas Bernier, along with Bernier's masterpiece, Les Nymphes de Diane, a secular cantata composed before 1718 so popular in its day that it was still being reprinted in the 1750's. There will also be solo instrumental works by Marais and D'Anglebert.
