 Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association

"The Chevalier"
Sunday, February 20 at 8:00 PM
Orchestra Hall at Symphony Center


Virtuoso violinist. Confidant to Marie Antoinette. Crusader for the abolishment of slavery. Inspiration to Mozart. The Chevalier de Saint-Georges.

Discover the many identities of 18th-century Black composer Joseph Bologne in this powerful concert-theater work. Written and directed by Bill Barclay, The Chevalier weaves together Bologne’s own music with semi-staged dialogue to tell his long-forgotten story and offer a thoughtful meditation on the true nature of equality.

On February 20, join the Music of the Baroque Orchestra conducted by Dame Jane Glover, violin soloist Brendon Elliott and four outstanding actors for the Midwest premiere of this exciting program.

Tickets start at only $25 — order yours today!

As a member of the CSO African American Network, you have access to $15 or $30 tickets for this performance with promo code AAN.
