George Gershwin’s iconic masterpiece, An American in Paris, transports us to the sophisticated soundscapes of early 20th-century France—a time when American culture found an eager audience in legendary composers like Maurice Ravel and Darius Milhaud. Their sonatas and ballet music shimmer with the unmistakable pulse of jazz and the blues. We further bridge this cultural divide through the music of contemporary American composer Valerie Coleman, exploring the legacy of Langston Hughes, whose own travels to Paris fostered a profound and lasting poetic exchange. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/richmond/american-in-paris/100001987577069519 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: all_ages - door_time: 2026-09-14T22:30:00Z - Duration: 2 hours - Location: First Unitarian Universalist Church - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 39.19, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Richmond - **state**: VA - **country**: United States - **location**: First Unitarian Universalist Church - **lat**: 37.5435293 - **long**: -77.4826392 - **full address**: First Unitarian Universalist Church, 1000 Blanton Avenue, Richmond, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: American in Paris - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/3801763c102fb8d7cffc499d13b7246035c3cf03ddd53dc198dc6c05b1a0998d-rimg-w1200-h593-dc1a2d35-gmir.jpg?v=1778618791 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is American in Paris being held? - **A:** American in Paris takes place on Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 09:00 pm at First Unitarian Universalist Church, 1000 Blanton Avenue, Richmond, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing American in Paris? - **A:** American in Paris is organized by Chamber Music Society of Central Virginia. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
