Les Délices (pronounced “Lay Day-lease”) delights, inspires, educates, and expands audiences for music on period instruments through innovative programming and world-class performances. With deep roots in the Northeast Ohio community, Les Délices is building a national reputation as a leader in the field of early music, advancing its relevance and sustainability. In this event, Les Délices presents its program “Marianne Mozart.” History remembers Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart as a singular prodigy, but in his youth, he shared the spotlight with an equally gifted sibling, Marianne Mozart (1751–1829). To illuminate Marianne’s story, Les Délices core members Shelby Yamin (violin) and Mark Edwards (fortepiano) perform familiar works by Wolfgang alongside brilliant, often overlooked compositions by some of his female contemporaries: Franziska Lebrun, Maddalena Lombardini Sirmen, Jane Mary Guest, and Josepha Barbara Aurnhammer.
