By the 1770s, Paris was at the heart of the intellectual, political, and cultural upheavals of the Age of Enlightenment, which would soon bring about both the American and French Revolutions. Harpist Maxine Eilander and violinist Tekla Cunningham perform music from the Parisian salons by Anne Brillon de Jouy, Zoe de la Rue, and Joseph Boulogne, Chevalier de Saint Georges.
Bach's Lunch series is on the first Tuesdays of the month (October-May). Bring your lunch and enjoy these free, informal concerts in this beautiful historic sanctuary right in the heart of the U-District.
