Black Mozart Tribute Concert
In honor of Black History
Month, Portland’s Baroque Or-
chestra will perform Black Mo-
zart: Chevalier Saint-Georges, on
Thursday, Feb. 2 at 7:30 p.m. in
Kaul Auditorium at Reed College
in southeast Portland.
A film about Joseph Boulogne,
known as the Chevalier de Saint-
George, and widely considered
the first classical composer of Af-
rican descent, will screen before
the concert at 6:15 p.m., giving
patrons an opportunity to learn
more about one of the greatest
composer-performers in the time
of Mozart and Haydn. The son of a
slave, Boulogne overcame adver-
sities of class, race and prejudice
to become a major musical star.
A Northwest Baroque Master-
works project, this concert is a
co-presentation between the Se-
attle Baroque Orchestra, the Pa-
cific Baroque Orchestra, Portland
Baroque Orchestra and the Early
Music Society of the Islands.
