Winds of Change

Les Delices
Les Delices

On Thursday, November 18, Les Délices' program  Winds of Change will premiere on Marquis TV. Virtuoso flutist  Emi Ferguson joins Les Délices for a program of riveting chamber works from the eve of the French and Haitian Revolutions. Inspired by philosophical ideals of liberty and equality and early abolitionist writing, we pair works by Joseph Bologne Chevalier de St. Georges and Luigi Boccherini with a new work by Haitian composer  Sydney Guillaume.

WCLV's John Mills spoke with Artistic Director Debra Nagy about this program and the premiere of Guillaume's  A Journey to Freecom.
