Musical Moments | Tour de France

Musical Moments is a curated playlist that promises to transport you to another place or time. Some episodes include recorded discussion with artists. Take a moment during your day to turn down the news and turn up the music!

Tour de France is an invitation to escape with us to a time of opulent beauty and refined expression in both music and dance of the 18th century. The intricate and delicate phrasing of the orchestra lays the rhythmic foundation and backdrop for fancy footwork. Dance is a part of culture and history. It reflects social custom, celebration, and so much more. Join us for an educational exploration experience where you will learn to dance a minuet and learn how it informs the artistic decisions that are made when practicing this music from hundreds of years ago. This special edition also includes an educational experience.
