SUMMARY:Concert—Music from the Life and Tour of Lafayette
DESCRIPTION:During the marquis de Lafayette’s 1824-1825 farewell tour\, he was celebrated in each city and town with processions\, banquets\, receptions\, worship services and visits to important sites—many of which included music written for the occasion.
