s@H Episode 5: Michel Lambert, Airs de cour

Join us from the comfort of your home as we launch our Fall 2020 “Season At Home” series!

We shared two Airs de cour by Michel Lambert during our Live From Home series sung by Garrett Eucker and Cat Sandstedt. The three Airs de cour for today’s performance come from the same collection published in Paris in 1689. The sung texts are in French, but we’ve included English subtitles for each one.
