Join us for a night of Baroque dance classics! After Jean-Féry Rebel’s “characters of the dance” teaches us the full emotional range of Baroque dance, the concert dives into some of the era’s most unforgettable music by Bach (including his ‘Air on a G String’), and Handel. Then, we’re back to the theater with more rousing dance and dramatic music by Rameau, full of rhythm and verve.
