Explore the life and influences of 17th-century Italian musician Antonia Bembo, whose incredible journey takes us from Venice to the court of Louis XIV in Paris. With text and narration by Symphony violinist and author Isabelle Fournier, and a spectacular performance by virtuoso lutenist Lucas Harris, we examine the rivalry and the union between French and Italian baroque music, art, and culture.

* The January 19 concert is part of the Baroque Series subscription.

Please note: for Baroque concerts at St. Andrew’s, tickets are available at the Dalhousie Arts Centre Box Office until the Friday before at 6 pm, and day-of tickets will be available at the door.
