Les Délices presents Songs Without Words

Songs without Words takes the adaptation of 17th Century songs for instruments as its point of departure and brings the concept into the 20th Century with torch songs and jazz standards arranged and improvised by the ensemble. Music by Lambert, Lully, and Marais is heard alongside tunes by Nina Simone, Aretha Franklin, and Billy Strayhorn in this program of timeless melodies and inspired improvisations. Pre-concert lecture at 3:00pm Wheelchair accessible; Parking Available
