The Library of Congress allowed Lizzo to play James Madison's 200-year-old crystal flute, designed by Claude Laurent in 1813.
Is there anything she can't do? The Houston-born singer is "feeling good as hell" after making history Tuesday night after playing something that belonged to former Pres. James Madison.We're getting a history lesson from Lizzo after the Library of Congress allowed her to play a 200-year-old crystal flute.
The Library of Congress knew she would be in Washington, D.C. for a tour stop Tuesday night, and since they have the largest flute collection in the world, they invited her to play.The Library of Congress said the flute was specifically made in 1813 by French designer Claude Laurent, in honor of Madison's second inauguration. It is also significant because it is believed Madison's wife, Dolley, saved it during war in 1814. That, though, remains a mystery.
The artists' skills come as no surprise to fans. She is a classically trained flute player and has been training on the instrument since she was a child.
