Friday, April 10: Le Bruit Court dans la Ville concert & dance party with Pierre Chartrand
Saturday, April 11: Le Vent du Nord concert


This exciting festival, featuring concerts and a dance party, will be hosted by Gilles Garand, a major figure in the revival of traditional French-Canadian music in Montreal.

Composed of three legends of Quebec’s traditional music scene, Le Bruit Court dans la Ville  (The Buzz around Town)
features fiddler Lisa Ornstein, button-accordionist/singer Normand Miron, and guitarist/singer André Marchand. They have been on the roster of virtually every groundbreaking band over the past 30 years: Ornstein and Miron were bandmates in La Bottine Souriante, the iconic trad supergroup which helped to kickstart Quebec’s folk music revival, and Miron and Marchand have been members of the extraordinary a cappella trad band Les Charbonniers de l’Enfer (The Coalmen from Hell). The artists have been playing as a trio since the 1990s, entrancing audiences with their fiery dance music and dazzling harmonies. 

For this dance concert they will by joined by Pierre Chartrand, a highly accomplished traditional Quebecois dance leader and caller.
