Postcards from Paris: Music from the Belle Époque: The Feeling of Free

Enjoy a free, music-filled midday break in the O'Brien Atrium. Bring your meal, grab a spot, and experience incredible live performances by talented artists—it's the perfect way to refuel your energy for the rest of the day!

Be transported to turn-of-the-century Paris with flutist Stephanie Morin and pianist Sylvia Bruns in this elegant noon-hour recital. Inspired by the charm and vitality of the French capital at the dawn of the 20th century, the program captures a moment when the flute was coming into its own as a virtuosic and expressive solo instrument.

Performed by a mother-daughter duo, this intimate concert offers a warm and refreshing midday escape - perfect for a moment of musical pause in the heart of your day!

Featuring works by Claude Debussy, Lili Boulanger, Georges Hüe, and Camille Saint-Saëns
