(CANCELLED) Thierry Bégin-L.

by Alain Brunet

Thierry Bégin-Lamontagne is undoubtedly one of the most gifted classical guitarists in Quebec. Since his teenage years, this authentic virtuoso has always shown a surprising ability to reach very high technical standards, which has led him to an international level of attention. And that’s why nylon-string guitar fans absolutely must discover him, if they haven’t already. For this concert, he’ll play works by J.S. Bach, Mauro Giuliani, Eduardo Sáinz de la Maza, Agustín Barrios Mangoré, Patrick Roux, Arnaud Dumond and Carlo Domeniconi. (Alain Brunet)

Mara Tremblay

by Alain Brunet

A national champion at combining rock, vintage pop and kebamericana, our Mara Tremblay released the album Cassiopée in 2017, so what’s in store for these concerts at Maison de la culture Maisonneuve and Centre communautaire d’Anjou? In March 2020, do we have the right to expect a new repertoire, or at least a foretaste of a new cycle of creation? It’s said to be a show in honour of International Women’s Day (March 8) and “focused on her new album”. Let the fans take it as a given!

Lary Kidd

by Alain Brunet

Two years after Contrôle, MC Lary Kidd released Surhomme, 12 pieces of his own with a plethora of bricolage beats concocted in concert with his buddies Ruffsound and Ajust. So life goes on, Lary Kidd continues his career without Loud, former teammate and close friend who has of course become a keb rap superstar. Less painful and tortured than the poetic material on Contrôle, Surhomme is stuffed with double entendres and metaphorical punch. His thoughts and observations are gathered from the trials and tribulations of everyday life. The trivialization of his own misery has made him stronger, more resistant, even almost unfeeling… hence the choice of the word “superman”. Will he fly over the Club Soda stage?
