From La Belle Époque until World War II, the city of light underwent a creative renaissance where French composers challenged the limits of romanticism while exploring what would become musical impressionism. Experience the intoxicating palette of harmonies used by Ravel and Debussy, Poulenc’s satirical flamboyance, and Fauré’s gorgeous tapestry of late romanticism at the Olympic Chamber Music Fellowship’s final concert.

There will be an interactive question & answer session with the artists immediately following this performance.
