 ique de la Garde Nationale Parisienne \n\nIn commemoration of the 250th an
 niversary of the Marquis de Lafayette's 1824-25 tour of the United States\
 , enjoy a lecture/concert of music from Lafayette's lifetime performed on 
 early 19th-century instruments. Join researchers and historical-performanc
 e specialists Dominic Giardino (historical clarinets) and Dr. Chris Troian
 o (serpent) to experience the music that underscored Lafayette's French Re
 volutionary career. The Age of Revolutions (1775-1848) was a period of soc
 ial\, political\, and cultural turbulence in Europe and the Americas. Ther
 e was perhaps no greater witness to this era of dramatic change than Gilbe
 rt du Motier\, Marquis de Lafayette. This lecture/performance\, with Lafay
 ette's leadership of the Garde Nationale Parisienne as the focal point\, w
 ill transport listeners to the desperate but optimistic early days of the 
 French Revolution when music left the aristocratic great rooms of Versaill
 es and poured onto the streets of Paris. \n\nAbout the Performers\nBased i
 n Williamsburg\, VA\, historical clarinetist Dominic Giardino enjoys a var
 ied professional life exploring the intersections of history and performan
 ce. Dominic is the executive director of the Tucson-based concert series A

 s.alexandriava.gov/CalendarTest/Detail.aspx?si=57403\n\nLecture: An Unholy
  Traffic\, Slave Trading in the Civil War South\n\nFrom Fort Sumter to App
 omattox\, Confederates bought and sold thousands of men\, women\, and chil
 dren through a surviving trade in slaves. Even though the war destroyed th
 e cotton economy that had long underpinned American slavery and fueled the
  slave trade\, Confederates used slave commerce to shape their experiences
  of the war\, whether to help them mobilize for the conflict or to weather
  the numerous crises it created. Some speculated wildly in human property 
 to ward off inflation or to buy shares in the slaveholding future for whic
 h they fought. Still others traded people to keep them from achieving the 
 freedom the war offered. For those held in slavery\, meanwhile\, the survi
 ving slave trade dramatically shaped the ways in which they encountered li
 berty\, yanking many back into bondage while inspiring others to risk flig
 ht. \n\nDr. Robert Colby is an assistant professor at the University of Mi
 ssissippi and is the author of An Unholy Traffic: Slave Trading in the Civ
 il War South. Proceeds from the event support Freedom House Museum.\n\n\nL
