Crestfallen violets, spurned lovers, and even Puss in Boots all made appearances last Friday night in an exciting recital of art song given by the Radcliffe Choral Society (RCS). “Beau Soir,” as the evening was aptly titled, proved to be an elegant assortment of lesser known gems from the greats; though the operas and symphonies of Mozart, Mahler and Brahms make frequent programmatic appearances, audiences are rarely given the opportunity to experience their lieds.
