Wondering why the violin is legendary? It's one of the world's most fabled instruments. Its mysterious past, including a 200-year disappearance, has inspired countless imaginations and even earned cinematic acclaim in the Academy Award-winning film, "The Red Violin."
Don't miss this historic occasion as Elizabeth Pitcairn, guardian of the Red Violin, graces Abbeville. Experience captivating music from "Louisiana Story: Acadiana Songs and Dances," a musical masterpiece composed in 1948 and the only film score to receive the prestigious Pulitzer Prize. You will be transported back to the enchanting world of 1948 with music from Virgil Thompson’s Pulitzer Prize-winning score for Robert Flaherty’s timeless film, "Louisiana Story." This year marks the 75th anniversary of the film's debut in the Southern Gala Premiere at the Historical Franks Theater, a milestone deeply rooted in Abbeville's history.
This performance is gearing the artists up for an international tour debut. Let the music guide your thoughts to higher realms of inspiration and illumination.
Save the date for Monday, May 6th at St. Mary Magdalen Church at 6:30pm and be part of history in the making!
