The Dryden Ensemble returns with its artistic director, Daniel Swenberg, in a program entitled "Daydreams (and Dictators)" on Saturday, November 15 at 4:00 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation, located on 50 Cherry Hill Road off Hwy. 206, Princeton, NJ. Admission is free, though donations will be gratefully accepted.

"Daydreams (and Dictators)" explores the flourishing musical scenes at Versailles (Louis XIV), Dresden (August the Strong), and Berlin (Fredrick the Great) in the 17th and 18th centuries. In the renaissance and baroque eras, rulers were highly educated and they cultivated the arts, in particular, by hiring the greatest performers, composers, poets, and painters. Art was used as an expression of power.
