Elisabeth at the Court of the Sun King
a baroque workshop for young musicians
Get your time travel passport ready for interactive learning about life and music at the court of the Sun King! Explore the culturally rich time of Louis XIV through the eyes of one of his favorite musicians, child prodigy Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre. String and keyboard students come together for an introduction to baroque-era instruments and dances, and to make music together.
The 2012 workshop shown above was presented with instrumental faculty from NYC-based SIREN Baroque, and baroque dance instructor Carol Pharo.
