WDAV proudly presents Chevalier, the first in our new Reel Music film series. Grab your popcorn and join fellow film and classical fans for a showing on the big screen at the Independent Picture House in Charlotte. Stick around afterward for a brief performance of Bologne's music perfromed by members from the Charlotte Strings Collective.
Inspired by the incredible true story of composer Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges. The illegitimate son of an African slave and a French plantation owner, Bologne (Kelvin Harrison Jr. in a tour de force performance) rises to improbable heights in French society as a celebrated violinist-composer and fencer, complete with an ill-fated love affair and a falling out with Marie Antoinette (Lucy Boynton) and her court.
