An Uncommon Chevalier is a concert program presented by Ars Lyrica Houston that brings to life the story and music of Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges—often referred to as the "Black Mozart." This program blends historical narrative with vibrant performance, highlighting Bologne’s Violin Concerto in D Major alongside Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 3 in G Major, K.216, and Haydn’s Paris Symphony No. 83. The event sits within a France-focused programming arc as part of Houston’s French Cultures Festival, offering audiences a compelling look at 18th-century virtuosity and the era’s cross-cultural dialogue.
