For hundreds of years, French songs have been passed on from generation to generation as a means of preserving important events in the history of their country, king, region, or family. The melodies, which bear the features of both popular and art music, are miniature masterpieces and still well-known in France today. Le Poème Harmonique makes their Boston début with a program showcasing their authentic and eloquent interpretations of this wonderful repertoire.
