A Federal Fanfare at the Franklins' is presented by the Franklin Quartet as part of Tempesta di Mare's Soundtrack of Independence series, marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The performance transports audiences to Benjamin Franklin's parlor, recreating an intimate house concert inspired by Philadelphia's 18th-century parlor music tradition. This setting reflects the cultural exchange that flourished as the young United States began shaping its own artistic identity, distinct from yet connected to Europe.
