A Federal Fanfare at the Franklins'!

Step back in time as the Franklin Quartet transports you to Benjamin Franklin’s 1785 Philadelphia homecoming. Picture Franklin hosting a private house concert, reconnecting with friends through string quartets by Boccherini, Saint-Georges, Gossec, Rigel, and Pleyel—composers he cherished, and met (!) during his decade in Paris. “A Federal Fanfare at the Franklins’! ” will be performed in the intimate and artsy Wunderkammer event space in Fort Wayne’s historic Oakdale neighborhood. Join us for an evening of virtuosity, passion, and revolutionary spirit, celebrating a unique fusion of diplomacy and culture in early America.
