The Sound of Elegance and Grace: Music from the Courts of 18th-Century Europe

Host an introductory musical performance of up to 90 minutes featuring a range of musical styles and composers from the 17th and 18th centuries. This engaging performance will be accompanied by a description of the work from a trio of musicians. Musical selections may include everything from lively dances to soulful reflections and can be developed in partnership with the neighbors. Neighbors will be drawn into an age of elegance and beauty.

Participants: 10 to 100 participants, depending on space
Ages: All
Value: $1,000.00
Requirements: Please provide a space that accommodates your event goals. Plan for about 5 square feet per musician, adequate lighting for musicians to read music, and one armless chair per musician. Any outside setting needs to be shaded and protected from rain and wind. Musicians will need a small room for instrument cases. Other concert formations—both larger and smaller concerts are also available from Roanoque Baroque.
