Additional Information
The Montréal baroque 2024 festival takes place from June 13 to 16, as usual, all over the Old-Montreal area (plus an excursion into the Quartier des spectacles). Vincent Lauzer, the festival’s co-artistic director and an excellent flautist, agreed to talk to us about this edition, whose theme is the encounter between styles and artists from different, yet complementary, horizons. Parallel Universes – Improbable Musical Meetings aptly bears its title: gospel and South Africa meet Baroque, 17th-century Europe dances with Persia and India, and the age-old tales of China, the Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa come to life with music by Dieupart, Scarlatti and Jacquet de la Guerre. In short, an abundance of musical dialectics that will result in original moments of artistic communion.
